Answer:
(A) The wavelength of this wave is .
(B) The amplitude of this wave is .
Explanation:
Refer to the diagram attached. A point on this wave is at a crest or a trough if its distance from the equilibrium position is at a maximum.
The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of each point from the equilibrium position. That's the same as the vertical distance between the crest (or the trough) and the equilibrium position.
- On the diagram, the distance between the two gray dashed lines is the vertical distance between a crest and a trough. According to the question, that distance is
for the wave in this rope.
- On the other hand, the distance between either gray dashed line and the black dashed line is the distance between a crest (or a trough) and the equilibrium position. That's the amplitude of this wave.
Therefore, the amplitude of the wave is exactly the vertical distance between a crest and a trough. Hence, for the wave in this question,
.
The wavelength of a transverse wave is the same as the minimum (horizontal) distance between two crests or two troughs. That's twice the horizontal distance between a crest and a trough in the same period.
