Question

A transverse sinusoidal wave moves along a string in positive x-direction at a speed of 10c m s to the power of negative 2 end exponent. The wavelength of the wave is 0.5 m and its amplitude is 10.cm at a particular time t, the snap-shot of the wave is shown in figure. The velocity of point P when its displacement is 5 cm is

  1. fraction numerator square root of 3 pi end root over denominator 50 end fraction stack j with hat on top m s to the power of negative 1 end exponent    
  2. negative fraction numerator square root of 3 pi end root over denominator 50 end fraction stack j with hat on top m s to the power of negative 1 end exponent    
  3. fraction numerator square root of 3 pi end root over denominator 50 end fraction stack i with hat on top m s to the power of negative 1 end exponent    
  4. negative fraction numerator square root of 3 pi end root over denominator 50 end fraction stack j with hat on top m s to the power of negative 1 end exponent    

The correct answer is: fraction numerator square root of 3 pi end root over denominator 50 end fraction stack j with hat on top m s to the power of negative 1 end exponent


    Particle velocity v subscript p end subscript equals negative v open parentheses s l o p e blank o f blank y minus x blank g r a p h close parentheses
    Here, v=+ve, as the wave is travelling in positive x-direction.
    Slope at P is negative.
    ∴ Velocity of particle is in positive y (+stack j with hat on top) direction.
