if zero falls between two significant numbers it becomes significant.
Mechanical energy E = mgh + 1/2mv²
When he starts, let h = 0 ⇒ E₁ = 1/2mv₁²
When he reaches height h ⇒ E₂ = mgh + 1/2mv₂²
Without friction, energy is conserved at all times.
E₁ = E₂
↓
1/2mv₁² = mgh + 1/2mv₂²
↓
1/2v₁² = gh + 1/2v₂²
↓
gh = 1/2(v₁² - v₂²)
↓
h = (v₁² - v₂²) / (2g)
The time interval that is between the first two instants when the element has a position of 0.175 is 0.0683.
<h3>How to solve for the time interval</h3>
We have y = 0.175
y(x, t) = 0.350 sin (1.25x + 99.6t) = 0.175
sin (1.25x + 99.6t) = 0.175
sin (1.25x + 99.6t) = 0.5
99.62 = pi/6
t1 = 5.257 x 10⁻³
99.6t = pi/6 + 2pi
= 0.0683
The time interval that is between the first two instants when the element has a position of 0.175 is 0.0683.
b. we have k = 1.25, w = 99.6t
v = w/k
99.6/1.25 = 79.68
s = vt
= 79.68 * 0.0683
= 5.02

complete question
A transverse wave on a string is described by the wave function y(x, t) = 0.350 sin (1.25x + 99.6t) where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. Consider the element of the string at x=0. (a) What is the time interval between the first two instants when this element has a position of y= 0.175 m? (b) What distance does the wave travel during the time interval found in part (a)?
Answer:
position 3
Explanation:
in position 3 PE is least as height is least
so KE is most as energy is always conserved
