  • A
    all the particles must be at their positive extremes simultaneously once in half of the time period.
  • B
    all the particles must be at their positive extremes simultaneously once in a time period.
  • in one time period all the particles are simultaneously at rest twice.
  • D

Answer

Correct option: C.
in one time period all the particles are simultaneously at rest twice.
c
In stationary wave pattern, the particles reaches their extreme position twice in one line period.

A fire hydrant delivers water of density $\rho $ at a volume rate $L$. The water travels vertically upward through the hydrant and then does $90^o$ turn to emerge horizontally at speed $V$. The pipe and nozzle have uniform cross-section throughout. The force exerted by the water on the corner of the hydrant is
$Assertion :$ For higher temperature the peak emission wavelength of a blackbody shifts to lower wavelengths.

$Reason :$ Peak emission wavelengths of a black body is proportional to the fourth-power of temperature.
