Standing waves are set up on two strings fixed at each end, as shown in the drawing. The two strings have the same tension and mass per unit length, but they differ in length by 0.51 cm. The waves on the shorter string propagate with a speed of 42.7 m/s, and the fundamental frequency of the shorter string is 234 Hz. Determine the beat frequency produced by the two standing waves.

Standing waves are set up on two strings fixed at each end, as shown in the drawing. The two strings have the same tension and mass per unit length, but they differ in length by 0.59 cm.

A transverse sinusoidal wave on a string has a period T = 39.0 ms and travels in the negative x direction with a speed of 30.0 m/s. At t = 0, a particle on the string at x = 0 has a transverse position of 2.00 cm and is traveling downward with a speed of 1.00 m/s.

Round all coefficients to three significant figures.) y(x, t) = X

A transverse sinusoidal wave is moving along a string in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 83 m/s. At t = 0, the string particle at x = 0 has a transverse displacement of 4.0 cm from its equilibrium position and is not moving. The maximum transverse speed of the string particle at x = 0 is 16 m/s. (a) What is the frequency of the wave? (b) What is the wavelength of the wave? If the wave equation is of the form y(x, t) = ym sin(kx ±wt + q), what are (c) ym, (d) k, (e) w, (f) 4, and (g) the correct choice of sign in front of w?
