    Three progressive waves A, B and C are shown in the figure with respect to A, the progressive wave

    A)  B lags by \[\frac{\pi }{2}\] and C leads by \[\frac{\pi }{2}\]

    B)  B lags by \[\pi \] and C leads by \[\pi \]

    C)  B leads by \[\frac{\pi }{2}\] and C lags by \[\frac{\pi }{2}\]

    D)  B leads by \[\pi \] and C lags by \[\pi \]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Equations of waves A, B and C are respectively \[{{y}_{A}}=A\sin \omega t\] \[{{y}_{B}}=A\sin \left( \omega t+\frac{\pi }{2} \right)\] \[{{y}_{C}}=A\sin \left( \omega t-\frac{\pi }{2} \right)\] Therefore, w.r.t. A, the progressive wave B lead by \[\frac{\pi }{2}\]and C lags by\[\frac{\pi }{2}\].
