Two sinusoidal waves of wavelength λ = 2/3 m and amplitude A = 6 cm and differing with their phase constant, are travelling to the left with same velocity v = 50 m/s. The resultant wave function y_res (x,t) will have the form:
y_res (x,t) = 12(cm) cos(φ/2) sin(150πx+3πt+φ/2).
y_res (x,t) = 12(cm) cos(φ/2) sin(3πx+150πt+φ/2).
y_res (x,t) = 12(cm) cos(φ/2) sin(3πx-150πt+φ/2).
y_res (x,t) = 12(cm) cos(φ/2) sin(3πx-180πt+φ/2).
y_res (x,t) = 12(cm) cos(φ/2) sin(150πx-3πt+φ/2).
A sinusoidal wave on a string is described by the wave function yy(xx,tt) = 0.02 sin(30xx − 400tt) (SIunits). If the string’s linear mass density is μμ = 0.005 kg/m, then the transmitted power is:
Two sinusoidal waves are moving through a medium in the positive x-direction, both having amplitudes of 6.00 cm, a wavelength of 4.3 m, and a period of 6.00 s, but one has a phase shift of an angle ϕ = 0.50 rad. What is the height of the resultant wave at a time t = 3.15 s and a position x = 0.45 m ?
