The displacement $y$ of a wave travelling in the $x$-direction is given by $y = 10^{-4} \sin(600t - 2x + \frac{\pi}{3}) \, \text{m}$,where $x$ is expressed in metres and $t$ in seconds. The speed of the wave in $\text{m/s}$ is:

  • A
    $300$
  • B
    $600$
  • C
    $1200$
  • D
    $200$

$A$ body sends a wave $150 \text{ mm}$ long through medium $P$ and $0.30 \text{ m}$ long in medium $Q$. If velocity of the wave in medium $P$ is $80 \text{ cm s}^{-1}$, the velocity of wave in medium $Q$ is (in $\text{ m s}^{-1}$)

For a wave propagating in a medium, identify the property that is independent of the others.

$A$ transverse wave is described by the equation $Y = Y_0 \sin 2\pi \left( ft - \frac{x}{\lambda} \right)$. The maximum particle velocity is four times the wave velocity if:

$A$ transverse sinusoidal wave moves along a string in the positive $x$-direction at a speed of $10 \text{ cm/s}$. The wavelength of the wave is $0.5 \text{ m}$ and its amplitude is $10 \text{ cm}$. At a particular time $t$,the snapshot of the wave is shown in the figure. The velocity of point $P$ when its displacement is $5 \text{ cm}$ is:
