Two waves represented by the following equations are travelling in the same medium: $y_1 = 5\sin 2\pi (75t - 0.25x)$ and $y_2 = 10\sin 2\pi (150t - 0.50x)$. The intensity ratio $I_1/I_2$ of the two waves is:

$A$ string of mass $100 \, g$ is clamped between two rigid supports. $A$ wave of amplitude $2 \, mm$ is generated in the string. If the angular frequency of the wave is $5000 \, rad/s$,then the total energy of the wave in the string is ..... $J$.
