               If the speed of the wave shown in the figure is 330m/s in the given medium, then the equation of the wave propagating in the positive x-direction will be (all quantities are in M.K.S. units)                                      

    A)            \[y=0.05\sin 2\pi (4000\,t-12.5\,x)\]

    B)            \[y=0.05\sin 2\pi (4000\,t-122.5\,x)\]

    C)            \[y=0.05\sin 2\pi (3300\,t-10\,x)\]

    D)            \[y=0.05\sin 2\pi (3300\,x-10\,t)\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                       Here \[A=0.05m,\] \[\frac{5\lambda }{2}=0.025\]Þ \[\lambda =0.1m\]                    Now standard equation of wave            \[y=A\sin \frac{2\pi }{\lambda }(vt-x)\]Þ \[y=0.05\sin 2\pi (33t-10x)\]
