How do I answer this?
A sinusoidal traveling wave is propagating down a string at a speed of #360 m/s# . The frequency of its oscillations are #500 Hz# .
a) How far apart are two points that differ in phase by# π/3 rad? # ( in mm)
b)What is the phase difference between two displacements at a certain point at times #1.00 ms# apart?
A sinusoidal traveling wave is propagating down a string at a speed of
a) How far apart are two points that differ in phase by
b)What is the phase difference between two displacements at a certain point at times
1 Answer
The velocity of wave
The frequency of wave
So wave length of the wave
Given phase difference
(a) So the path difference for this phase difference will be
(b) The length of the path traveled in time
Hence the phase difference between two displacements at a certain point at times 1.00ms apart will be
