At a moment in a progressive wave, the phase of a particle executing S.H.M. is π3. Then the phase of the particle 15 cm ahead and at the time T2 will be, if the wavelength is 60 cm

a
π2
b
2π3
c
Zero
d
5π6

detailed solution

Correct option is D

Let the phase of second particle be φ. Hence phase difference between two particles is  Δφ=2πλΔx⇒φ−π3=2π60×15⇒φ−π3=π2⇒φ=5π6
