Answer:
standing wave, also called stationary wave, combination of two waves moving in opposite directions, each having the same amplitude and frequency.
For oppositely moving waves, interference produces an oscillating wave fixed in space. fixed nodes in a standing wave. Location of fixed nodes in a standing wave
these are the points that undergo the maximum displacement during each vibrational cycle of the standing wave. In a sense, these points are the opposite of nodes, and so they are called antinodes. A standing wave pattern always consists of an alternating pattern of nodes and antinodes
Explanation:
For this problem, we use the equations derived for rectilinear motion at constant acceleration. The equations are:
a = (v - v₀)/t
x = v₀t + 0.5at²
where
a is acceleration
v and v₀ are the final and initial velocities, respectively
x is the distance
t is the time
First, let's determine the a to be used in the second equation:
a = (7.5 m/s - 0 m/s)/1.7 s = 4.411 m/s²
x = (0)(1.7s) + 0.5(4.411 m/s²)(1.7 s)²
x = 6.375 m
