The equation of wave is \(\mathrm{Y}=6 \mathrm{sin}\) \(\left(12 \pi t-0.02 \pi x+\frac{\pi}{3}\right)\) where ' \(x\) ' is in \(m\) and ' \(t\) ' in
s. The velocity of the wave is

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(600 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \text { Given: } y=6 \sin \left(12 \pi t-0.02 \pi x+\frac{\pi}{3}\right) \\ & \omega t=12 \pi t \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{2 \pi}{T}=12 \pi\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
\therefore \quad \mathrm{T} & =\frac{1}{6} \\
\Rightarrow \mathrm{n} & =6
\end{aligned}\)
Also given \(\frac{2 \pi}{\lambda}=0.02 \pi\)
\(\therefore \quad \lambda=\frac{2}{0.02}=100\)
From equation: \(\mathrm{v}=\mathrm{n} \lambda\), we get
\(\begin{aligned}
\mathrm{v} & =6 \times 100 \\
& =600 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
\end{aligned}\)
