MCQ
Two travelling waves produces a standing wave represented by equation,

${y}=1.0\, {mm} \cos \left(1.57 \,{cm}^{-1}\right) {x} \sin \left(78.5\, {s}^{-1}\right) {t}$

The node closest to the origin in the region ${x}>0$ will be at ${x}=\ldots \ldots \ldots\, {cm}$

  • A
    $3$
  • $1$
  • C
    $5$
  • D
    $7$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$1$
b
For node

$\cos \left(1.57 {cm}^{-1}\right) {x}=0$

$\left(1.57 {cm}^{-1}\right) {x}=\frac{\pi}{2}$

${x}=\frac{\pi}{2(1.57)} {cm}=1\, {cm}$
