The equation of a wave is given by $y = 10 \sin \left(\frac{2 \pi t}{30} + \alpha\right)$. If the displacement is $5 \ cm$ at $t = 0 \ s$,then the total phase angle at $t = 7.5 \ s$ will be:

If the frequency of a wave is increased by $25 \%$,then the change in its wavelength is (medium not changed).

$Assertion :$ Speed of wave $= \frac{\text{wavelength}}{\text{time period}}$
$Reason :$ Wavelength is the distance between two nearest particles in phase.
