Q15.36Multiple choice
For the harmonic travelling wave y = 2 cos 2π (10t–0.0080x + 3.5) where x and y are in cm and t is second. What is the phase difference between the oscillatory motion at two points separated by a distance of
- (a)4 m
- (b)0.5 m λ
- (c)3λ
- (d)(at a given instant of time) (e) What is the phase difference between the oscillation of a particle located at x = 100cm, at t = T s and t = 5 s?
