Path difference A = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi } X \phi \Rightarrow 1 = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi } X \frac{\pi }{2} \Rightarrow \lambda = 4 m

Hence v = n\lambda = 120 X 4 = 480 m/s

 

Wave function -

Function which can mathematically represent a moving wave pulse are called wave function.

- wherein

y\left ( x,t \right )= f\left ( x\pm vt \right )
