A simple harmonic oscillator at the point x=0 genrates a wave on a rope. The oscillator operates at a frequency of 40.0 Hz and with an amplitude of 3.00 cm. the rope has a linear mass density of 50.0 g//m and is strectches with a tension of 5.00 N. (a) determine the speed of the wave. (b) find the wavelength. (c ) write the wave function y(x,t) for the wave, Assume that the oscillator has its maximum upward displacement at time t=0. (d) find the maximum transverse acceleration at time t=0. (d) find the maximum transverse of points on the rope. (e) in the discussion of transverse waves in this chapter, the force of gravity was ignored. is that a reasonable assumption for this wave? explain.
