All the particles are vibrating in the same phase.

Vedclass · Answer

(A) In a plane progressive mechanical wave,particles of the medium perform $SHM$ with the same amplitude and frequency,but they vibrate with different phases depending on their position. The wave velocity is determined by the properties of the medium (such as elasticity and density). Therefore,the statement that 'all particles are vibrating in the same phase' is incorrect,as the phase varies with the position $x$ according to the equation $\phi = kx - \omega t$.
