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:

In a plane progressive harmonic wave,the particle speed is always less than the wave speed if:

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

Which of the following functions for $y$ can never represent a travelling wave?

You have learnt that a travelling wave in one dimension is represented by a function $y=f(x, t)$ where $x$ and $t$ must appear in the combination $x-vt$ or $x+vt$,i.e.,$y=f(x \pm vt)$. Is the converse true? Examine if the following functions for $y$ can possibly represent a travelling wave:
$(a)$ $(x-vt)^2$
$(b)$ $\log[(x+vt)/x_0]$
$(c)$ $1/(x+vt)$

The wave equation is $y = 0.30 \sin (314t - 1.57x)$ where $t, x$ and $y$ are in second,meter and centimeter respectively. The speed of the wave is ..... $m/s$.
