A plane wave is described by the equation $y = 3\cos \left( {\frac{x}{4} - 10t - \frac{\pi }{2}} \right)$. The maximum velocity of the particles of the medium due to this wave is
Two particles of identical mass are moving in circular orbits under a potential given by $V(r)=K r^{-n}$, where $K$ is a constant. If the radii of their orbits are $r_1 \cdot r_2$ and their speeds are $v_1 \cdot v_2$, respectively. Then,
A small roller of diameter $20 cm$ has an axle of diameter $10 cm$ (see figure below on the left). It is on a horizontal floor and a meter scale is positioned horizontally on its axle with one edge of the scale on top of the axle (see figure on the right). The scale is now pushed slowly on the axle so that it moves without slipping on the axle, and the roller starts rolling without slipping. After the roller has moved $50 cm$, the position of the scale will look like (figures are schematic and not drawn to scale)-
