A progressive wave is represented byy=12sin⁡(5t-4x)cm. On this wave, how far away are the two points having a phase difference of90°?

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

y=12 sin (5t-4x)
Comparing iny=Asin⁡wt-kx
We haveA=12, w=5 and k=4
wt-kx=phase difference=π2
∴| 5t−4x |= π 2

Whent=0, 4x=π2
∴x=π8 cm
