Assertion : The transverse wave is travelling along a string in the positive axis as shown

Points moving (downward) and points moving (upward).
Reason : In a wave propagating in positive direction the points with slope move downward and vice versa.



Important Questions on Wave Motion on a String
Assertion : In transverse wave particle velocity is perpendicular to the direction of wave velocity.
Reason : In wave motion energy always transferred in the direction of wave propagation.

Assertion : The wave function of a pulse is given by is propagates in ( direction)
Reason : The given wave function is of the form which represent a wave travelling in negative - direction.

Assertion : Standing waves do not transfered energy in the medium.
Reason : Every particle vibrates with its own energy and it does not share its energy with any other particle

Assertion : A wave can be represented by function
Reason : Because it satisfies the differential equation
