A standing wave is the result of superposition of two harmonic waves given by the equations y1(x;t) =Asin(ωt - kx) and y2(x; t) = Asin(ωt + kx). The angular frequency is ω = 3π rad/s and the k = 2πrad/m is the wave number.(a) Give an expression for the amplitude of standing wave.
b) calculate the frequency of the wave
Consider two wave functions y1 (x, t) = A sin (kx − ωt) and y2 (x, t) = A sin (kx + ωt + ϕ). The resultant wave form when you add the two functions is yR = 2A sin (kx +ϕ/2) cos (ωt + ϕ/2). Consider the case where A = 0.03 m−1, k = 1.26 m−1, ω = π s−1 , and ϕ = π/10 . (a) Where are the first three nodes of the standing wave function starting at zero and moving in the positive x direction? (b) Using a spreadsheet, plot the two wave functions and the resulting function at time t = 1.00 s to verify your answer.
