The diagram shows a snapshot of a wave at time $t = 0$. The particle at $x = x_1$ is moving upward at that instant. The direction of propagation of the wave is:

The path difference between the two waves $y_1 = a_1 \sin \left( \omega t - \frac{2\pi x}{\lambda} \right)$ and $y_2 = a_2 \cos \left( \omega t - \frac{2\pi x}{\lambda} + \phi \right)$ is

$A$ transverse wave is represented by $y = \frac{10}{\pi} \sin \left( \frac{2\pi}{T}t - \frac{2\pi}{\lambda}x \right)$. For what value of the wavelength is the wave velocity twice the maximum particle velocity (in $cm$)?

Velocity of sound waves in air is $V \ m/s$. For a particular sound wave in air,a path difference of $x \ cm$ is equivalent to a phase difference of $n\pi$. The frequency of this wave is:

$A$ simple harmonic progressive wave is represented as $Y = A \sin 2 \pi (n t - \frac{x}{\lambda}) \text{ cm}$. If the maximum particle velocity is four times the wave velocity,then the wavelength of the wave is
