In stationary waves, antinodes are the points where there is
  • A
    Minimum displacement and minimum pressure change
  • B
    Minimum displacement and maximum pressure change
  • C
    Maximum displacement and maximum pressure change
  • Maximum displacement and minimum pressure change

Answer

Correct option: D.
Maximum displacement and minimum pressure change
d
Antinodes are the points on stationary wave with maximum displacement and maximum pressure change.Nodes are the point of zero displacement of particle and here pressure is also minimum.Antonodes are shown in the given figure.

Consider an elliptically shaped rail $P Q$ in the vertical plane with $O P=3 \ m$ and $OQ =4 \ m$. A block of mass $1 \ kg$ is pulled along the rail from $P$ to $Q$ with a force of $18 \ N$, Which is always parallel to line $PQ$ (see the figure given). Assuming no frictional losses, the kinetic energy of the block when it reaches $Q$ is $(n \times 10)$ joules. The value of $n$ is (take acceleration due to gravity $=10 \ ms ^{-2}$ )
