The transverse displacement of a string (clamped at both ends) is given by $y(x, t) = 0.06 \sin \left(\frac{2 \pi}{3} x\right) \cos (120 \pi t)$,where $x$ and $y$ are in $m$ and $t$ is in $s$. The length of the string is $1.5 \; m$ and its mass is $3.0 \times 10^{-2} \; kg$. Answer the following:
$(a)$ Does the function represent a travelling wave or a stationary wave?
$(b)$ Interpret the wave as a superposition of two waves travelling in opposite directions. What is the wavelength,frequency,and speed of each wave?
$(c)$ Determine the tension in the string.

If in a stationary wave the amplitude corresponding to an antinode is $4 \,cm$,then the amplitude corresponding to a particle of medium located exactly midway between a node and an antinode is ........... $cm$.

Two travelling waves produce a standing wave represented by the equation,
${y} = 1.0 \, \text{mm} \cos(1.57 \, \text{cm}^{-1} x) \sin(78.5 \, \text{s}^{-1} t)$
The node closest to the origin in the region ${x} > 0$ will be at ${x} = \dots \, \text{cm}$.

In stationary waves,

$A$ wave disturbance in a medium is described by $y(x, t) = 0.02 \cos(50 \pi t + \frac{\pi}{2}) \cos(10 \pi x)$,where $x$ and $y$ are in metres and $t$ is in seconds.
