Equation of a plane progressive wave is given by $y = 0.6\sin 2\pi \left( {t - \frac{x}{2}} \right)$. On reflection from a denser medium its amplitude becomes $2/3$ of the amplitude of the incident wave. The equation of the reflected wave is

  • A

    $y = 0.6\sin 2\pi \left( {t + \frac{x}{2}} \right)$

  • B

    $y =  - 0.4\sin 2\pi \left( {t + \frac{x}{2}} \right)$

  • C

    $y = 0.4\sin 2\pi \left( {t + \frac{x}{2}} \right)$

  • D

    $y =-0.4\sin 2\pi \left( {t - \frac{x}{2}} \right)$
