The equation of a progressive wave is given by $y = A \cos 240(t - x/12)$,where $t$ is the time in seconds and $x$ is the distance in meters. The phase difference (in radians) between two positions $0.5 \, m$ apart is:

$A$ wave is represented by $x = 0.4 \cos \left(8t - \frac{y}{2}\right)$ where $x$ and $y$ are in meters and $t$ is in seconds. The speed of the wave is

The equation of a progressive wave is given by $y = 4 \sin \left( \pi \left( \frac{t}{5} - \frac{x}{9} \right) + \frac{\pi}{6} \right)$. Which of the following is correct?

The equation of a plane progressive wave is given by $y = 0.6 \sin 2\pi \left( t - \frac{x}{2} \right)$. On reflection from a denser medium,its amplitude becomes $2/3$ of the amplitude of the incident wave. The equation of the reflected wave is:

$A$ transverse harmonic wave on a string is described by $y(x, t) = 3.0 \sin (36t + 0.018x + \pi/4)$,where $x$ and $y$ are in $cm$ and $t$ is in $s$. The positive direction of $x$ is from left to right.

$A$ progressive wave of frequency $50 \,Hz$ is travelling with velocity $350 \,m/s$ through a medium. The change in phase at a given time interval of $0.01 \,s$ is
