A wave is given by the equation \(y=(0.02) \sin (\pi x-8 \pi t)\) then the velocity of the wave is ( \(y\) and \(x\) are in metre and \(\mathrm{t}\) is in second)

  1. A \(16 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\)
  2. B \(2 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\)
  3. C \(8 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\)
  4. D \(18 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(8 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A wave is given by \(\mathrm{y}=0.02 \sin (\pi \mathrm{x}-8 \pi \mathrm{t})\) Compare with \(\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{y}=\mathrm{A} \sin (\mathrm{kx}-\omega \mathrm{t}) \\ & \mathrm{k}=\pi, \omega=8 \pi \end{aligned}\) Velocity,…
