Speed of wave
Question

The same progressive wave is represented by two graphs I and II. Graph I shows how the displacement 'y' varies with the distance x along the wave at a given time. Graph II shows how y varies with time t at a given point on the wave. The ratio of measurements AB to CD, marked on
the curves, represents:

Moderate
Solution

AB = λ

CD = T

ABCD = λT =  = v i.e., wave speed.
