    The vibration of string can be described by the equation \[y=0.75\,\{\cos \,(2\pi /5)x\}\sin \{(60\,\pi {{s}^{-1}})t\}\] The speed of wave travelling in the string is

    A)  \[24\,\,\pi \,cm\,{{s}^{-1}}\]                     

    B)  \[0.3\,\,\pi \,cm\,{{s}^{-1}}\]

    C)  \[450\,\,cm\,{{s}^{-1}}\]                             

    D)  \[150\,\,cm\,{{s}^{-1}}\]

    E)  \[75\,\,cm\,{{s}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    Given equation \[Y=(0.75)\left\{ \cos \frac{2\pi }{5}\times \sin \,(60\pi )t \right\}\] Comparing this with standard equation \[y=a\cos \frac{2\pi }{\lambda }x\,\sin \frac{2\pi }{T}\times t\] We get \[\frac{2\pi }{5}=\frac{2\pi }{\lambda }\Rightarrow \lambda =5\] \[\because \]     \[n=30\] and \[\frac{2\pi }{T}=60\,\pi \] \[24\,\pi =60\,\pi \] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[V=x\lambda =30\times 5=150\,cm\,{{s}^{-1}}\]
