The equation of transverse wave traveling along a string is given by Y = 0.3 sin(0.5x - 50t) where Y and X are in cm and t is in seconds.Find the maximum displacement of the particles from the equilibrium position
A
50.0cm
B
2.5 cm
C
0.5cm
D
0.3cm
Verified Correct Answer: D.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
Y = 0.3 sin(0.5x - 50t) compare with,
y = A sin(kx - wt)
A = 0.3m
