Two waves with the same frequency .................(can/cannot) have different amplitudes.

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 . Answer the following questions: Speed of a wave in a string forming a stationary wave does not depend on

A piano string having a mass per unit length equal to 5.00 xx 10^(3)kg//m is under a tension of 1350 N , Find the speed with which a wave travels on this string.

Assertion : Speed of mechanical wave in the medium depends on the velocity of source, relative to an observer at rest. Reason : Speed of mechanical wave is independent of the elastic and other properties such as mass density of the medium.
