The equation of travelling wave is y= 60 cos (1800 t-6x) where y is in micron and t in second and x in metre. The ratio of maximum particle velocity to velocity of wave propagation is

  • 3.6

  • 3.6×10-4

  • 3.6×10-11

  • 3.6×10-6

Solution

B.

3.6×10-4

y(x,t)=A sin(kx-ωt+ϕ)the equation isy =60 cos(1800t-6x)Velocity of the wave is given by  ν=ωk=18006=3.6×10-4Maximum particle velocity isumax= =60×10-6×1800 m/s           (as t in second, x in meter and y is in micron so A=60×10-6)The ratio is umax=60×10-6×1800300=3.6×10-4
