The forces that act on the beam are gravity and tension in the cable .

Gravity can be defined as the force that exists almost among all material objects that exist in the universe . Gravity is operating among objects of all sizes starting from subatomic sized particles to clusters of galaxies .It is the force that causes the free fall of an apple from the tree on the ground and also the movement of planets around the sun .

Tension can be defined as a force along the length of a medium , the force here is especially carried by a flexible medium such as a rope or a cable . The SI unit of tension is Newton per meter .

The forces that act on the beam are gravity and tension in the cable .

Leptons exist on two main classes i.e. charged leptons, and neutral leptons. Electron, electron neutrino, muon, muon neutrino, tau and tau neutrino are the six types of leptons.</em>

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A general wave function is given by:

f(x,t)=Acos(kx-\omega t)

A: amplitude of the wave = 0.075m

k: wave number

w: angular frequency

a) You use the following expressions for the calculation of k, w, T and λ:

\omega = 2\pi f=2\pi (2.00Hz)=12.56\frac{rad}{s}

k=\frac{\omega}{v}=\frac{12.56\frac{rad}{s}}{12.0\frac{m}{s}}=1.047\ m^{-1}

T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{2.00Hz}=0.5s\\\\\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{k}=\frac{2\pi}{1.047m^{-1}}=6m

b) Hence, the wave function is:

f(x,t)=0.075m\ cos((1.047m^{-1})x-(12.56\frac{rad}{s})t)

c) for x=3m you have:

f(3,t)=0.075cos(1.047*3-12.56t)

d) the speed of the medium:

\frac{df}{dt}=\omega Acos(kx-\omega t)\\\\\frac{df}{dt}=(12.56)(1.047)cos(1.047x-12.56t)

you can see the velocity of the medium for example for x = 0:

v=\frac{df}{dt}=13.15cos(12.56t)
