The equation of a simple harmonic progressive wave is given by y = A sin ⁡ 100 π t - 3 x . Find the distance between 2 particles having a phase difference of π 3 .

Step-by-step solution

Given, y = A sin ⁡ 100 π t - 3 x The general equation, y = A sin ⁡ ω t - k x ∴ k = 3 Phase difference, ϕ = π 3 K x = π 3 x = π 3 k x = π 9 Distance, x = π 9 m
