The angle between the particle velocity and wave velocity in a transverse wave is [except when the particle passes through the mean position]
- A \(\frac{\pi}{4}\) radian
- B \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) radian
- C \(\pi\) radian
- D Zero radian
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) radian
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In transverse wave particle oscillates perpendicular to direction of propagation of wave.
Hence angle is \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) radian .
Hence angle is \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) radian .
