When a wave travels in a medium,the particle displacement is given by $y(x, t) = 0.03 \sin \pi (2t - 0.01x)$,where $y$ and $x$ are in meters and $t$ is in seconds. The phase difference,at a given instant of time,between two particles $25 \ m$ apart in the medium is:

The disturbance $y(x, t)$ of a wave propagating in the positive $x$-direction is given by $y = \frac{1}{1 + x^2}$ at time $t = 0$ and by $y = \frac{1}{1 + (x - 1)^2}$ at $t = 2 \ s$,where $x$ and $y$ are in meters. The shape of the wave disturbance does not change during the propagation. The velocity of the wave in $m/s$ is:
