A transverse wave travelling on a stretc...

A transverse wave travelling on a stretched string is is represented by the equation
`y =(2)/((2x - 6.2t)^(2)) + 20`. Then ,

A

velocity of the wave is `3.1m//s`

B

amplitude of the wave is `0.1m`

C

frequency of the wave is `20 Hz`

D

wavelength of the wave is `1m`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B
`:. v = ("Coefficient of t")/("Coefficient of x")`
`= (6.2)/(2)= 3.1 m//s`
`A = (2)/(20) = 0.1 m`
