Chapter 16, Problem 91P
SSM In a demonstration, a 1.2 kg horizontal rope is fixed in place at its two ends (x = 0 and x = 2.0 m) and made to oscillate up and down in the fundamental mode, at frequency 5.0 Hz. At t = 0, the point at x = 1.0 m has zero displacement and is moving upward in the positive direction of a y axis with a transverse velocity of 5.0 m/s. What are (a) the amplitude of the motion of that point and (b) the tension in the rope? (c) Write the standing wave equation for the fundamental mode.

An aluminum rod, 1.00 m long, is held lightly in the middle. One end is struck head-on with a rubber mallet so that a longitudinal pulse—a sound wave—travels down the rod. The fundamental frequency of the longitudinal vibration is 3.20 kHz. At any given instant, in which direction do the two ends of the rod vibrate?
