A string with both ends held fixed is vibrating in its third harmonic. The waves have a speed of 193 m/s and a frequency of 235 Hz . The amplitude of the standing wave at an antinode is 0.380 cm. A) Calculate the amplitude at a point on the string a distance of 18.0 cm from the left-hand end of the string.
B) How much time does it take the string to go from its largest upward displacement to its largest downward displacement at this point?
C) Calculate the maximum transverse velocity of the string at this point.
D) Calculate the maximum transverse acceleration of the string at this point.

1. what is the relationship between wavelength and the penetrating power of an electromagnetic wave? a) the penetrating power has no relationship to the wavelength. b) the penetrating power increases as the wavelength increases. c) the penetrating power decreases as the wavelength increases. d) the penetrating power decreases as the wavelength decreases. 2. as ice melts and turns into water, the speed of sound through the material would most likely do what? justify your answer. a) the speed would not change because the material is always water. b) the speed of sound would increase because the density of water is less than that of ice. c) the speed of sound would increase because energy is added to ice in order to make it melt. d) the speed of sound would decrease because sound travels faster through solids than liquids. 3.which of these waves need a medium to travel through? a) sound b) x-rays c) infrared rays d) visible light
