When a wave travels in a medium, the particle displacement is given by : $y = a\,\sin \,2\pi \left( {bt - cx} \right)$ where $a, b$ and $c$ are constants. The maximum particle velocity will be twice the wave velocity if

  • A

    $c = \frac{1}{{\pi a}}$

  • B

    $c = \pi a$

  • C

    $b = ac$

  • D

    $b = \frac{1}{{ac}}$
