Explanation:
Given that,
Amplitude, A = 2.5 nm
Wavelength,[tex]\lambda=1.8\ m[/tex]
The speed of the wave, v = 36 m/s
At time t = 0 the left end of the string has its maximum upward displacement.
(a) Let f is the frequency. So,
[tex]f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{36}{1.8}\\\\f=20\ Hz[/tex]
(b) Angular frequency of the wave,
[tex]\omega=2\pi f\\\\=2\pi \times 20\\\\=125.7\ rad/s[/tex]
(c) The wave number of the wave[tex]=\dfrac{1}{\lambda}[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{1}{1.8}\\\\=0.56\ m^{-1}[/tex]
