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 2?

If the velocity of the particle at point 3 is given by the arrow D, in which direction is the wave moving?

If the velocity of the particle at point 2 is given by the arrow C, 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 8?

Since the wave is transverse, hence particle must oscilate either up or down.

(i) If wave is moving right then particle at 4 must move upward.

(ii) SInce the wave is moving to left, direction of velocity of particle at 2 must be upward.

(iii)If particle at 3 is moving upward, then wave is supposed to move leftward.

(iv)If particle at 2 is moving downward then wave must go towards right.

(v)If the wave is moving rightward, then particle at point 8 must move upward.
