Question

If the wave is moving to the right, what is the direction of the velocity of the particle at point 4?

If the wave is moving to the left, what is the direction of the velocity of the particle at point 6?

If the velocity of the particle at point 1 is given by the arrow D, in which direction is the wave moving?

If the velocity of the particle at point 6 is given by the arrow B, in which direction is the wave moving?

If the wave is moving in the direction A, what is the direction of the velocity of the particle at point 7?

A) B) C) D) E) the velocity is zero /5 8

Explanation / Answer

velocity of particle = - wave velocity *slope of the curve
