Answer:
given
y=6.0sin(0.020px + 4.0pt)
the general wave equation moving in the positive directionis
y(x,t) = ymsin(kx -?t)
a) the amplitude is
ym = 6.0cm
b)
we have the angular wave number as
k = 2p /?
or
? = 2p / 0.020p
=1.0*102cm
c)
the frequency is
f = ?/2p
= 4p/2p
= 2.0 Hz
d)
the wave speed is
v = f?
= (100cm)(2.0Hz)
= 2.0*102cm/s
e)
since the trignometric function is (kx -?t) , sothe wave propagates in th -x direction
f)
the maximum transverse speed is
umax =2pfym
= 2p(2.0Hz)(6.0cm)
= 75cm/s
g)
we have
y(3.5cm ,0.26s) = 6.0cmsin[0.020p(3.5) +4.0p(0.26)]
= -2.0cm
True.
A contact force is a force between two objects that are physically in contact with each other: an example of a contact force is the normal reaction of a table supporting a book.
A non-contact force is a force between two objects that are not physically in contact with each other: an example of non-contact force is the gravitational attraction between the Earth and the Moon.
