If the length of the string is L = 2 m and it is fixed at both ends, then the harmonic, n, in which the string is vibrating is: O n= 3 O n= 6 O n = 5 n = 2 n = 4 A standing wave with wavelength A = 1.2 m and frequency f = 50 Hz is generated on a stretched cord. For an element of the cord at x = 0.5 m, the maximum transverse velocity is v(y,max) = 2t m/s. The amplitude A of each of the individual waves producina the standing wave is:arrow_forwardThe transverse displacement of a stretched string from equilibrium as a function of time and position is given by: Evaluate y%30.13cos(9 x + 27 t). x and y are in m; t is in s.
