The equation of transverse wave traveling along a string is given by Y = 0.3 sin(0.5x - 50t) where Y and X are in cm and t is in seconds.Find the maximum displacement of the particles from the equilibrium position
- A. 50.0cm
- B. 2.5 cm
- C. 0.5cm
- D. 0.3cm
Correct Answer: D. 0.3cm
Explanation
Y = 0.3 sin(0.5x - 50t) compare with,
y = A sin(kx - wt)
A = 0.3m
