A) \[58\,\,m{{s}^{-1}}\]
B) \[580\,\,m{{s}^{-1}}\]
C) \[20\,\,m{{s}^{-1}}\]
D) \[116\,\,m{{s}^{-1}}\]
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Key Idea: Distance between nearest crests is equal to the wavelength. In case of transverse wave, wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests or through. The relation between velocity \[(v)\], frequency \[(n)\] and wavelength \[(\lambda )\] is \[v=n\lambda \] Given,\[n=580\,\,Hz,\,\,\lambda =20\,\,cm=20\times {{10}^{-2}}m\] \[\therefore \] \[v=580\times 20\times {{10}^{-2}}=116\,\,m/s\] Note: In case of longitudinal wave, wavelength is the distance between two successive compressions or rarefactions.
