Question

In the figure at the right is shown three graphs of the shapes of the same taut elastic string in three different circumstances, labeled A, B, and C. In some of the problems below, the string represents a guitar string, tied down at both ends, while in others, it is part of a very long telephone wire whose ends are not shown. Be careful to note which is which for each problem! The string is light enough that the effects of gravity can be ignored. In each case, the bit of string at the position x = 23 cm is painted blue.

4. Suppose that graph C represents part of a long wire, under tension, and is showing a left traveling wave at a particular instant. What can you say about the velocity of the blue bead in case C at the instant shown?

a. It is upward.
b. It is downward.    
c. It is 0.
d. You can’t say anything from the information given.

5. Suppose that graph C represents part of a long wire, under tension, and is showing a left traveling wave at a particular instant. What can you say about the acceleration of the blue bead in case C at the instant shown?
 
a. It is upward.
b. It is downward.    
c. It is 0.
d. You can’t say anything from the information given.
