This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar
(a, b, d, e) a) clearly every particle at x will have amplitude =asinkx=fixed
b) for mean position =0
coswt=0
wt= (2n-1)
hence for a fixed of n all particles are having same value of time t= (2n-1)
c) amplitude of all the particles are
