    A   transverse   wave    is   given   by  \[y=A\sin 2\pi \left( \frac{t}{T}-\frac{x}{\lambda } \right).\] The maximum particle velocity is equal to 4 times the wave velocity, when:

    A) \[\lambda =2\pi \,A\]

    B)  \[\lambda =\frac{1}{2}\pi A\]

    C)  \[\lambda =\pi A\]

    D)  \[\lambda =\frac{1}{4}\pi A\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     The given equation of transverse wave is \[y=A\sin 2\pi \left( \frac{t}{T}-\frac{x}{\lambda } \right)\] Maximum particle velocity \[({{u}_{m}})=a\omega \] From standard wave equation,\[~a=A,\] \[\omega =2\pi n=2\pi \frac{v}{\lambda }\]              \[\therefore \] \[{{u}_{m}}=A.2\pi \frac{v}{\lambda }=4v\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\lambda =\frac{\pi A}{2}\]
