To determine the valid wave equation for a stationary wave set up in a string clamped at both ends, we need to analyze the characteristics of stationary waves and the boundary conditions imposed by the clamping of the string. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Stationary Waves**: A stationary wave is formed by the superposition of two waves traveling in opposite directions. The general form of a stationary wave can be expressed as: \[ y(x, t) = A \sin(kx) \cos(\omega t) \quad \text{or} \quad y(x, t) = A \cos(kx) \sin(\omega t) ...

Estimation of frequency of a wave forming a standing wave represented by y = A sin kx cos t can be done if the speed and wavelength are known using speed = "Frequency" xx "wavelength" . Speed of motion depends on the medium properties namely tension in string and mass per unit length of string . A string may vibrate with different frequencies . The corresponding wavelength should be related to the length of the string by a whole number for a string fixed at both ends .
