MHT CET · Physics · Waves and Sound
Two identical progressive waves moving in opposite direction superimpose to
produce a stationary wave. The wavelength of each progressive wave is \(\lambda^{\prime}\). The
wavelength of the stationary wave is
- A \(\frac{\lambda}{4}\)
- B \(\frac{\lambda}{2}\)
- C \(\lambda\)
- D \(2 \lambda\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\lambda\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Wavelength of the stationary wave is same as that of the two interfering waves.
