QUESTION:

(a) Show that Eq. (15.25) can also be written as \(P_{a v}=\frac{1}{2} F k \omega A^{2}\), where  is the wave number of the wave. (b) If the tension  in the string is quadrupled while the amplitude  is kept the same, how must  and \(\omega\) each change to keep the average power constant? [Hint: Recall Eq. (15.6).]
