3just that theres a phase lag ............the stuff supposed to happen happens after the second particle ........
What is the phase difference, at a given instant of time, between two particles 25 m apart, when the wave y (x, t) = 0.03 sin (2t - 0.01x) travels in a medium ?

3THE PHASE HERE IS GIVEN BY ,,,,,,,
2t - 0.01x .............................
PHASE DIFF.IS JUST DIFFERENCE BETW, THEM ..............
2t - 0.01(x+25) - 2t + 0.01(x) ......................
= -0.01(25) = -0.25 .................................
phase diff of particle 1 wrt particle 2 is negative ,,,,,,,,,
particle 2 wrt particle 1 will be 0.25 ........[1]
1yup...correct.
But just make me clear on this..what is the implication of a -ve phase diff.?
