JEE Main & Advanced Physics Wave Mechanics Question Bank Progressive Waves

  • question_answer
    The equation of a plane progressive wave is given by \[y=0.025\sin (100t+0.25x)\]. The frequency of this wave would be              [CPMT 1993; JIPMER 2001, 02]

    A)            \[\frac{50}{\pi }Hz\]          

    B)            \[\frac{100}{\pi }Hz\]

    C)            100 Hz                                     

    D)            50 Hz

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               Compare the given equation with \[y=a\sin (\omega t+kx)\]. We get \[\omega =2\pi n=100\] Þ \[n=\frac{50}{\pi }Hz\]
