Chapter 15: Problem 7
Transverse waves on a string have wave speed 8.00 m/s, amplitude 0.0700 m, and wavelength 0.320 m. The waves travel in the \(-x\)-direction, and at \(t = 0\) the \(x = 0\) end of the string has its maximum upward displacement. (a) Find the frequency, period, and wave number of these waves. (b) Write a wave function describing the wave. (c) Find the transverse displacement of a particle at \(x = 0.360\) m at time \(t = 0.150\) s. (d) How much time must elapse from the instant in part (c) until the particle at \(x = 0.360\) m next has maximum upward displacement?
