The Attempt at a Solution



I have no idea how to do this
 
Physics news on Phys.org
What does the graph of y = sin(n\theta) look like in comparison to the graph of y = sin(\theta)

Now what does the graph of y = |sin(n\theta)| look like?
 
I have done what u told me
However, i cannot come up with a good explanation to summarize the phenomena
 
How about just describing the graph you got (the one for y = |sin(n\theta)|?
