MCQ
The phase difference between two points separated by $1m$ in a wave of frequency $120 Hz$ is ${90^o}$. The wave velocity is .... $m/s$
  • A
    $180$
  • B
    $240$
  • $480$
  • D
    $720$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$480$
c
(c) Path difference $\Delta = \frac{\lambda }{{2\pi }} \times \phi $

==> $1 = \frac{\lambda }{{2\pi }} \times \frac{\pi }{2}$ 

==> $\lambda = 4m$ 

Hence $v = n\lambda  =  120 \times 4 = 480\,m/s$
