MCQ
A cork floating in a calm pond executes simple harmonic motion of frequency v when a wave generated by a boat passes by it. The frequency of the wave is:
- ✓$\text{v}$
- B$\frac{\text{v}}{2}$
- C$2\text{v}$
- D$\sqrt{2}\text{v}.$
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\text{v}$
Explanation:
The boat transmits the same wave without any change of frequency to cause the cork to execute SHM with same frequency though amplitude may differ.
