Charlie and Colby are working in a cookie factory. The cookies are baked at 425◦F, cool down in 12 minutes, and are then boxed at room temperature. Charlie is close to the left end of a 78-m long conveyor belt; he takes the cookies from a hot tray and places five cookies on the belt in 30 seconds. Colby is near the right end and does the packing. The boxes can hold 50 cookies. a) Describe how this system can be used as a model of a continuous wave. b) Charlie places the tray of hot cookies on a cart. He pushes the cart towards Colby at the speed vCh = 2 m/min. How long does it take Colby to fill a box?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Wave function-This function is relation between position and time of a particle. We can denote this function K(x, t) , where x is position and t is time. It is complex function .But when we square of this function by taking it's modulus it interprets position of the particle in an interval at a particular duration.

The meaning of continuous is that there should not be any break in the curve when we plot it on two dimensional plane.
