In this problem, I am suppose to manipulate the equation to find what r equals to. Thank you.
Explain in detail, using definitions and diagrams as needed, what exactly a scalar integral represents
I am confused on how to start this problem.  I know I need to use the y(x,t)=Asin(kx+wt+phi) formula, but do I need to take the derivative of that once I enter in all the variables?  I am referenceing the problem 14 in the pic I attached. Thanks!
