A sinusoidal wave is propagating along a stretched string that lies along the x-axis. The displacement of the string as a function of time is graphed in the figure (attachment) for particles at x=0m and x=0.0900m.
A) What is the amplitude of the wave? (solved)
B) What is the period of the wave? (solved)
C) You are told that the two points x=0 an x=0.09m are within one wavelength of each other. If the wave is moving in the +x-direction, determine the wavelength and wave speed. (solved)
If the wave is moving in the -x-direction, determine the wavelength and wave speed. What should i do here ?
