Physics of Sound

  1. The transverse wave represented by the equation
    y + 4sin
    π
    sin(3x + 15t) has
    6

    1. amplitude = 4
    2. wavelength = 4(π/3)
    3. speed of propagation = 5
    4. period = π/15
Correct Option: C

Compare the given equation with standard form

y = r sin
2πx
-
2πt
λT

= 3,λ =
and
= 15
λ3T

T =
15

Speed of propagation,
v =
λ
=
2π/3
= 5
T2π/15
