Question

The displacement-time graph for a particle in a wave is shown below. The frequency of the wave is 10 Hz.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B

False

In the given displacement-time graph, it shows the variation of displacement of a particle of the medium with time at a given position, when a wave propagates through the medium.

Here, the amplitude(a) is 4 cm and its time period(T) is 10 s.

So the frequency is $\frac{1}{T}=\frac{1}{10}=0.1Hz$

So the given statement is false.
