Travelling wave
Question

A sound source emits sound waves in a uniform medium. If energy density is E and maximum speed of the particles of the medium is vmax. The plot between E and vmax is best represented by 

Moderate
Solution

Energy density (E)  =Iv=2π2ρn2A2
vmax=ωA=2πnAE(vmax)2
i.e., graph between E and vmax will be a parabola symmetrical about E axis.
