Question
A wave traveling along a string is described byy(x, t) 0.00327 sin(72.1x 2.72t), (16-18)in which the numerical constants are in SI units (0.00327 m,72.1 rad/m, and 2.72 rad/s).(a) What is the amplitude of this wave?
Solution
To find the amplitude of the wave, we can use the given equation: y(x, t) = 0.00327 sin(72.1x - 2.72t).
The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position. In this case, the amplitude is the coefficient of the sine function, which is 0.00327.
Therefore, the amplitude of this wave is 0.00327 meters.
