Displacement of a wave is expressed as \(x(t)=5 \cos \left(628 t+\frac{\pi}{2}\right) m\). The wavelength of the wave when its velocity is \(300 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) is :
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 3 m
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{x}(\mathrm{t})=5 \cos \left[628 \mathrm{t}+\frac{\pi}{2}\right] \mathrm{m} \\ & \text { velocity }\left(\mathrm{v}_\omega\right)=300 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \\ & \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{w}}=\frac{\omega}{\mathrm{K}} \\ & 300=\frac{628}{\mathrm{~K}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{~K}=\frac{628}{300} \\ & \frac{2 \pi}{\lambda}=\frac{628}{300} \Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{2 \times 3.14 \times 300}{628} \\ & \lambda=2 \mathrm{~m}\end{aligned}\)
