The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the particle velocity amplitude and the particle acceleration amplitude for a traveling wave characterized by a frequency \( \nu \) and a particle displacement amplitude \( A \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Wave Equation**: The general form of the wave equation for a simple harmonic wave is given by: \[ y(x, t) = A \sin(\omega t + \phi) \] where \( A \) is the particle displacement amplitude, \( \omega \) is the angular frequency, and \( \phi \) is the phase constant. 2. **Relate Frequency and Angular Frequency**: The angular frequency \( \omega \) is related to the frequency \( \nu \) by the equation: \[ \omega = 2\pi\nu \] 3. **Find Particle Velocity**: The particle velocity \( v \) is the time derivative of the displacement \( y \): \[ v = \frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(A \sin(\omega t + \phi)) \] Using the chain rule, we differentiate: \[ v = A \omega \cos(\omega t + \phi) \] The amplitude of the particle velocity \( V \) is given by the coefficient of the cosine term: \[ V = A\omega \] 4. **Substituting for Angular Frequency**: Now, substitute \( \omega = 2\pi\nu \) into the expression for velocity amplitude: \[ V = A(2\pi\nu) = 2\pi A \nu \] 5. **Find Particle Acceleration**: The particle acceleration \( a \) is the time derivative of the velocity \( v \): \[ a = \frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(A \omega \cos(\omega t + \phi)) \] Again, using the chain rule: \[ a = -A \omega^2 \sin(\omega t + \phi) \] The amplitude of the particle acceleration \( A_a \) is given by: \[ A_a = A \omega^2 \] 6. **Substituting for Angular Frequency**: Substitute \( \omega = 2\pi\nu \) into the expression for acceleration amplitude: \[ A_a = A(2\pi\nu)^2 = A(4\pi^2\nu^2) = 4\pi^2 A \nu^2 \] ### Final Answers: - The particle velocity amplitude is \( 2\pi A \nu \). - The particle acceleration amplitude is \( 4\pi^2 A \nu^2 \).
