MCQ
If the equation of transverse wave is $y = 5\sin 2\pi \left[ {\frac{t}{{0.04}} - \frac{x}{{40}}} \right]$, where distance is in $ cm$ and time in second, then the wavelength of the wave is .... $cm$
- A$60$
- ✓$40$
- C$35$
- D$25 $
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
$40$
b
(b) Comparing with $y = a\sin 2\pi \left[ {\frac{t}{T} - \frac{x}{\lambda }} \right]$==> $\lambda = 40\,cm$
(b) Comparing with $y = a\sin 2\pi \left[ {\frac{t}{T} - \frac{x}{\lambda }} \right]$==> $\lambda = 40\,cm$

Airplanes $A$ and $B$ are flying with constant velocity in the same vertical plane at angles $30^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ with respect to the horizontal respectively as shown in figure . The speed of $A$ is $100 \sqrt{3} ms ^{-1}$. At time $t=0$, an observer in A finds $B$ at a distance of $500 \ m$. This observer sees $B$ moving with a constant velocity perpendicular to the line of motion of $A$. If at $t = t _0$, $A$ just escapes being hit by $B , t _0$ in seconds is:
