placement y versus time t of the
point on a string at x= 0, as a
wave passes through that point.
The scale of the y axis is set by
y, = 6.0 mm. The wave is given
by y(x, t) = ym sin(kx – wt + 4).
What is 4? (Caution: A calculator
does not always give the proper
inverse trig function, so check your answer by substituting it and an
assumed value of w into y(x, 1) and then plotting the function.)

*27 O A sinusoidal wave is sent along a string with a linear
density of 2.0 g/m. As it travels, the kinetic energies of
the mass elements along the string vary. Figure 16-37a gives the
rate dKldt at which kinetic energy passes through the string ele-
ments at a particular instant, plotted as a function of distance x
along the string. Figure 16-37b is similar except that it gives the
rate at which kinetic energy passes through a particular mass ele-
ment (at a particular location), plotted as a function of time t. For
both figures, the scale on the vertical (rate) axis is set by R, = 10 W.
