Complete question is;

A rope, under a tension of 153 N and fixed at both ends, oscillates in a second harmonic standing wave pattern. The displacement of the rope is given by

y = (0.15 m) sin[πx/3] sin[12π t].

where x = 0 at one end of the rope, x is in meters, and t is in seconds. What are (a) the length of the rope, (b) the speed of the waves on the rope, and (c)the mass of the rope? (d) If the rope oscillates in a third - harmonic standing wave pattern, what will be the period of oscillation?

A) Length of rope = 4 m

B) v = 24 m/s

C) m = 1.0625 kg

D) T = 0.11 s

Explanation:

We are given;

T = 153 N

y = (0.15 m) sin[πx/3] sin[12πt]

Comparing this displacement equation with general waveform equation, we have;

k = 2π/λ = π/2 rad/m

ω = 2πf = 12π rad/s

Since, 2π/λ = π/2

Thus,wavelength; λ = 4 m

Since, 2πf = 12π

Frequency;f = 6 Hz

A) We are told the rope oscillates in a second-harmonic standing wave pattern. So, we will use the equation;

λ = 2L/n

Since second harmonic, n = 2 and λ = L = 4 m

Length of rope = 4 m

B) speed is given by the equation;

v = fλ = 6 × 4

v = 24 m/s

C) To calculate the mass, we will use;

v = √T/μ

Where μ = mass(m)/4

Thus;

v = √(T/(m/4))

Making m the subject;

m = 4T/v²

m = (4 × 153)/24²

m = 1.0625 kg

D) Now, the rope oscillates in a third harmonic.

So n = 3.

Using the formula f = 1/T = nv/2L

T = 2L/nv

T = (2 × 4)/(3 × 24)

T = 0.11 s
