MHT CET 2023 Physics question
A transverse wave in a medium is given by y = A sin 2(ωt-kx). It is found that the magnitude of the maximum velocity of particles in the medium is equal to that of the wave velocity. What is the value of A?
Answer: (D)
Solution
Write . Particle velocity , so . The wave velocity is the ratio of the coefficients of and : . Setting gives
