Consider a segment of a long length of string through which a wave is traveling. The wave is produced by a continuously oscillating source. Within that segment there is a certain amount of wave energy. As long as the amplitude of the oscillations remains the same, the amount of wave energy in that segment of the string always has the same value. Now suppose that the amplitude of the oscillations producing the wave is doubled so the wave amplitude in the segment of the string in question is doubled. How does the wave energy in that segment of the string compare with the original wave energy in that segment of the string?

A string has a point attached to a motor that makes it oscillate with a simple harmonic motion, if the generated mechanical wave propagates to the right with amplitude A=0.10 m. A point on the string takes 1.1 s to complete one oscillation and the wavelength is 50 cm. At the instant when time begins, t=0 s, the point on the string above the origin of coordinates is 0.10 m above the equilibrium point. From the situation described, determine: A. the wave function. B. At time t=0 s, which points on the string have maximum elongation (ymax)? C. the maximum value of the velocity at points on this string. D. If the motor that makes the string oscillate has a fault and now produces a SHM with a frequency that is only a quarter of the initial frequency of the movement, what effect does the period with which the particles of string move have? rope?

The depth to an unusual layer of rock is to be determined at a particular place by bouncing an artificially generated seismic wave off it and receiving the echo at the surface. When this is done, the depth is given by the equation, h = (1/2) v t, in which h is the depth, v is the average velocity of the seismic wave, and t is the time that it takes for the wave to go down to the rock layer and return to the surface. If t = 0.350 +/- 0.10, and v = 2,000 +/- 10. meters per second, what is the possible error in the depth. (Show your work, and remember to express your results in the correct number of significant figures.)

A transverse periodic wave travels to the left along a string. Their characteristics are: amplitude of 0.200 m, wavelength of 0.350 m and a frequency of 12.0 Hz.

Consider a row of identical masses hanging from identical springs, set in motion by a wave travelling along the row. Which of the following statements is true? All of the masses must have identical motion Oscillations of each mass must have the same period. The frequency of oscillation of a mass depends on its place in the row. The phase of the motion of each mass is unrelated.
A string has a mass attached to it as shown in the figure. The length of the entire string is 2.4 m, and its mass is 12 gram. The hanging mass attached to the string is M = 4 kg. 1/4 of the length of the string is in the hanging part (vertical) and 3/4 is parallel to the table. The string in the horizontal part is plucked, and standing waves are observed in the third harmonic.
