Question #95e4b

2 Answers

This is
Simple harmonic motion (I know u know this ),
For simple harmonic motion Equation is written as
#y=A sin(kx-omegat)#
k=Force constant,
AS , #pi# is multiplied inside.
k=#0.020pi#
#omega#=#4.0(pi)#

k=#(2pi)/Lambda#
So substitute here get lambda

And ,
frequency=#c/lambda#
c is speed of light=#3*10^8#
Intensity=[Power]/area
Intensity is inversely proportional to #r^2#
So,
Intensity=#1/r^2#
So,
divide both of them i.e as 45 and ant 90,
#2.5/I#=#(90/45)^2# here I we have to find

Given equation represents a transverse wave with general equation as

#y(x,t)=Asin ((2pi)/lambda)(x-vt)# .......(1)
where #A# is maximum amplitude, #lambda# is wavelength and #v# wave velocity. Also #-vt# implies velocity in #+x# direction

It also represents Traveling Wave Solution for an ideal string.

it's equivalent form can be written as

#y(x,t)=Asin 2pi(x/lambda-t/T)# ........(2)
where #T# is time period and related to frequency as #f=1/T#

Rewriting given equation in the form as in equation (2) we get

#y(x,t)=5.5sin 2pi(0.010x-2.0t)#

Comparing with (2)

#1/lambda=0.010=>lambda=1/0.010=>lambda=100cm#
#1/T=2.0=>f=2.0Hz#
