MCQ
In stationary waves, distance between a node and its nearest antinode is $20 cm$. The phase difference between two particles having a separation of $60 cm$ will be
  • A
    Zero
  • B
    $\pi /2$
  • C
    $\pi$
  • $3 \pi /2$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$3 \pi /2$
d
(d) $\frac{\lambda }{4} = 20 \Rightarrow \lambda = \,80\,cm$,

also $\Delta \phi = \frac{\lambda }{{2\pi }}.\,\Delta x$ 

==> $\Delta \phi = $ $\frac{{60}}{{80}} \times 2\pi = \frac{{3\pi }}{2}$
