$A$ string of length $1\,m$ and linear mass density $0.01\,kg/m$ is stretched to a tension of $100\,N$. When both ends of the string are fixed,the three lowest frequencies for standing waves are $f_1, f_2$,and $f_3$. When only one end of the string is fixed,the three lowest frequencies for standing waves are $n_1, n_2$,and $n_3$. Then:
$A$ wave travels on a light string. The equation of the wave is $Y = A \sin (kx - \omega t + 30^o)$. It is reflected from a heavy string tied to an end of the light string at $x = 0$. If $64\%$ of the incident energy is reflected,the equation of the reflected wave is:

View Solution$A$ stationary wave is represented by $y = 10 \sin \left( \frac{\pi x}{4} \right) \cos (20 \pi t)$,where $x$ and $y$ are in $cm$ and $t$ is in seconds. The distance between two consecutive nodes is (in $cm$)
Two travelling waves of equal amplitudes and equal frequencies move in opposite directions along a string. They interfere to produce a stationary wave whose equation is given by $y = (10 \cos \pi x \sin \frac{2 \pi t}{T}) \, cm$. The amplitude of the particle at $x = \frac{4}{3} \, cm$ will be ........ $cm$.
