Q.

A wave travelling along the x-axis is described by the equation y(x,t)=0.005cos(αxβt) . If the wavelength and the time period of the wave are 0.08 m and 2.0 s, respectively, then αβ=n×5 then the value of n is (where α,β are in appropriate units).

Detailed Solution

y=0.005cos(αxβt)
compared y=Acos(kxwt)
Given λ=0.08;T=2
α=2πλ and β=2πT

αβ=Tλ=20.08=25

n=5
