$A$ sine wave has an amplitude $A$ and wavelength $\lambda$. Let $V$ be the wave velocity and $v$ be the maximum velocity of a particle in the medium. Then:

  • A
    $V = v$ if $\lambda = \frac{3A}{2\pi}$
  • B
    $V = v$ if $A = 2\pi\lambda$
  • C
    $V = v$ if $A = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi}$
  • D
    $V$ can not be equal to $v$
