Answer #1

(a) Ans. Longitudinal waves. Because displacement of particles are parallel to the direction of wave (i.e. Along x-axis).

Since particles are vibrating parallel to x-axis. its a longitudinal wave.

(b) Ans. D.

Because equilibrium distance between two particles is 0.5m. So, maximum displacement can be 1.

And, the waves starts from trough and then crest. So, option D seems most apropriate.
