Question

the perticle of a medium vibrate about their mean positions whenever a wave travels through that medium.
The particles of a medium vibrate about their mean
The phase difference between the vibrations of two such
particles
(a) varies with time
(b) varies with distance separating them
(c) varies with time as well as distance
(d) is always zero​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer

The phase difference between the vibrations of two particles of the medium is given by :

Δϕ=

λ

2π

Δx

it is clear that phase difference varies as the path difference between the particles varies, which is the distance, separating the particles.
