The pressure variation equation of a sound wave propagating in a medium with pressure amplitude P0 is
P=P0 sin ω(t−xv)
Inference:
In the tube where this wave is propagating if we measure pressure, then the maximum pressure measured will be P0 atm and Minimum pressure measured will be −P0 atm as maximum & minimum values of sin θ is (+1/-1).
Statement is correct, Inference is wrong
Statement is correct but inference is wrong, because the pressure amplitudes do not represent absolute pressure it just gives pressure differences. −P0 cannot be measured what will be measured will be Patmosphere−P0
