Question
For the wave in the previous question, that was moving at 200200 m/s right,in which direction could the displacement of the individual particles of the string be occuring?A) left and rightB) up and downC) a combination of the twoD) impossible to tell
Solution
The displacement of the individual particles in a wave is always perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. In this case, since the wave is moving to the right (horizontally), the displacement of the particles would be up and down (vertically). So, the answer is B) up and down.
