Progressive Wave Equation

A progressive wave of frequency 50 Hz is travelling with velocity 350 m/s through a medium. The change in phase at given time interval of 0.01s is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

At a fixed point, phase changes with time as $\Delta\phi = \omega\,\Delta t = 2\pi f\,\Delta t$ .
$\Delta\phi = 2\pi \times 50 \times 0.01 = \pi$ rad
So the answer is (c) $\pi$ rad.
