Example 1 · difficulty 2/5
The displacement of a particle of a medium is given by y(x, t) = 0.05 sin(4πx − 20πt), where x is in metre and t is in second. The speed of the wave is:
- A. 0.5 m s⁻¹
- B. 2.5 m s⁻¹
- C. 5.0 m s⁻¹
- D. 10 m s⁻¹

These are current-syllabus NeetVellum questions, shown separately from historical-paper provenance.
Example 2 · difficulty 2/5
A uniform wire of linear mass density 2.0 × 10⁻² kg m⁻¹ is kept under a tension of 8.0 N. The speed of a transverse wave travelling along the wire is:
- A. 20 m s⁻¹
- B. 40 m s⁻¹
- C. 200 m s⁻¹
- D. 10 m s⁻¹
Example 3 · difficulty 1/5
A string fixed at both ends vibrates in four loops (segments) when driven at a frequency of 400 Hz. The fundamental frequency of the string is:
- A. 400 Hz
- B. 200 Hz
- C. 50 Hz
- D. 100 Hz
The evidence-first practice loop
- 1. Verify provenanceOfficial paper and final key before accepting a PYQ label.
- 2. Attempt closed-bookExpose the concept or execution gap before rereading.
- 3. Repair and returnClassify the miss and re-practice after a delay.

Frequently asked questions
Are these official NEET 2016 Physics Waves PYQs?
No. The previews are original NeetVellum practice questions. A historical item receives a PYQ label only after its official paper and authoritative final answer key are attached. Use the official archive for the source paper.
How should I use the NEET 2016 paper?
Solve the official paper under its original timing, verify against the final key, classify every miss, and then use the linked current-syllabus practice bank to repair the exposed concept.
