Wave Motion Ques 118
- The displacement of particles in a string stretched in the $x$-direction is represented by $y$. Among the following expressions for $y$, those describing wave motion is (are)
(a) $\cos k x \sin \omega t$
(b) $k^{2} x^{2}-\omega^{2} t^{2}$
(c) $\cos ^{2}(k x+\omega t)$
(d) $\cos \left(k^{2} x^{2}-\omega^{2} t^{2}\right)$
$(1987,2 M)$

Answer:
Correct Answer: 118.(a, c)
Solution:
Formula:
General Equation of Wave Motion:
- (a) and (c) options satisfy the condition;
$$ \frac{\partial^{2} y}{\partial x^{2}}=(\text { constant }) \frac{\partial^{2} y}{\partial t^{2}} $$
