(a)
K=2πλ=2π0.800=7.85m−1w=2πf=2π×3=6πrad/sec∴y(x,t)=Asin(wt+kx)
as wave is moving in x- direction
=(81000m)sin(6πt+7.85x)=0.08sin(6πt+7.85x)
(b)
as y=0 at x=10cm=0.1m
we know that we must shift the wave so that y(0.1,0)=0
Let
y(x,t)=0.08sin(6πt+7.85x+ϕ)
now
0=0.08sin(6πt+7.85x+ϕ)0=sin(0.785+ϕ)∴ϕ=−0.785∴y(x,t)=0.08sin(6πt+7.85x+0.785)
