AIPMT PRELIMS 2008 Physics Phase Difference MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

Two points are located at a distance of 10 m and 15 m from the source of oscillation. The period of oscillation is 0.05 sec and the velocity of the wave is 300 m/s. What is the phase difference between the oscillations of two points ?

A

π

B

π/6

C

π/3

D

2π/3

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

The phase difference is calculated using the formula Δφ = 2πΔx/λ, where Δx is the distance difference and λ is the wavelength.
