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
50.0cm
2.5 cm
0.5cm
0.3cm
Explanation
Y = 0.3 sin(0.5x - 50t) compare with,
y = A sin(kx - wt)
A = 0.3m
y = A sin(kx - wt)
A = 0.3m
