I am having difficulty grasping what to do for this problem:
Two point sources located (0, +/- 2.5(lambda)) are generating waves in phase. Compute the distance from the x-axis to the first nodal line at
x=50(lambda)
I'm not sure what equations to use. My physics instructor is terrible...
A stationary wave is represented by
y= 0.3cos 12x sin t
(a)What is phase difference between the points where x =0.1m and x=0.5m ?
Can anybody give suggestion for me to solve this question ?I have think for this question for a long time.Thanks for anybody that spend...
Hi everyone! I need help on these two problems:
1.) A flower pot is knocked off a balcony 20m above the sidewalk and falls toward an unsuspecting 1.75-m-tall man who is standing below. How close to the sidewalk can the flower pot fall before it is too late for a shouted warning from the...
I've looked at the following problem several times and have gotten stuck.
The Problem
-----------
An earthquake-produced suface wave can be approximated by a sinusoidal transverse wave. Assuming a frequency of 0.50 Hz (typical of of earthquakes, which actually include a mixture of...
A 30.0 m steel wire and a 20.0 m copper wire, both with 1.00-mm diameters are connected end to end and stretched to a tension of 150 N. How long does it take a transverse wave to travel the entire length of the two wires?
I really don't need an answer but rather something to get me going.
Once again, I've become stuck on the easiest problem in the chapter (though I'm steamrolling the tougher ones). I just can't get the concept of this one down I guess. Thanks for any help.
A 4 Hz wave with amplitude 12 cm and a wavelength 30.0 cm travels along a stretched string. (a) how...
