Solving the Transverse Wave on a Rope: Tension and Force
The transverse displacement of an harmonic wave on a stretched rope is y = 0.04 cos(2.5 t - 3.3 x), where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. A 5 meter length of this rope has a mass of 1.5 kg. a) What is the tension in the rope? b) At time t = 0, consider a 1/2 wavelength long...- masamune

What is the period of a standing transverse wave on a flexible string?
The diagram represents a snapshot of a standing transverse wave on a flexible string taken when the displacement is at a maximum. The string is 1.34 m long with tension 6 N. The total mass of the string is 12.22 g. Find the period of the oscillation. The diagram is unlabeled. it just shows...- PhysicsPhun
