A progressive wave is represented by \( y = 10 \text{Sin} (1000\pi t - \frac{\pi x}{34}) \) . two layers of the wave separated by 153cm have a phase difference of?

A.

2700

B.

450

C.

900

D.

1800

E.

No Correct Option

Correct answer is C

Comparing \( y = 10 \text{Sin} (1000\pi t - \frac{\pi x}{34}) \) with y = A sin (ωt - ϕ)

where ϕ = \(\frac{2\pi x}{λ}\)

comparing:  \(\frac{2\pi x}{λ}\) = \( \frac{\pi x}{34}\)

λ = 34 \(\times\) 2 = 68

: ϕ =  \(\frac{2\pi x}{λ}\) =  \(\frac{2\pi \times 153}{68}\)

ϕ = 4.5\(\pi\) rad = 810° or 90°

since sin 810° or 90° = 1
