A transverse pulse is given as, y=1010x-πt where, x and y are in cm and t is in sec.

Assertion: The frequency of the pulse is 120 Hz.
Reason: We can write this equation as, y=Akx-ωt where, A, k and ω are the amplitude, wave number and angular frequency of pulse.

Consider a plane progressive wave propagating along negative x-direction whose frequency is f. At t=t0 the displacement associated with the wave is given by the following equation:

yx, t=t0=A cos kx

Displacement associated with the wave as a function of x at t=2t0 can be represented by equation.
