The following statements are given for a stationary wave:
$(a)$ Every particle has a fixed amplitude which is different from the amplitude of its nearest particle.
$(b)$ All the particles cross their mean position at the same time.
$(c)$ All the particles are oscillating with the same amplitude.
$(d)$ There is no net transfer of energy across any plane.
$(e)$ There are some particles which are always at rest.
Which of the following is correct?

  • A
    $(a), (b), (c), (d), (e)$

$Assertion :$ For the formation of stationary waves,the medium must be bounded having definite boundaries.
$Reason :$ In the stationary wave,some particles of the medium remain permanently at rest.

$A$ wave travels on a light string. The equation of the wave is $Y = A \sin (kx - \omega t + 30^o)$. It is reflected from a heavy string tied to an end of the light string at $x = 0$. If $64\%$ of the incident energy is reflected,the equation of the reflected wave is:

The stationary wave produced on a string is represented by the equation $y = 5 \cos (\pi x / 3) \sin (40 \pi t)$. Where $x$ and $y$ are in $cm$ and $t$ is in seconds. The distance between consecutive nodes is .... $cm$.

$A$ stretched string is vibrating in its $5^{th}$ harmonic as shown. Consider a particle $1$ (figure). At an instant,this particle is at its mean position and is moving towards its negative extreme. Which of the following sets of particles are in the same phase as particle $1$?

For a stationary wave,$Y = 10 \sin \left( \frac{\pi x}{15} \right) \cos (48 \pi t) \text{ cm}$,the distance between a node and the successive antinode is (in $\text{ cm}$)
