A transverse wave pulse travels to the right along astring

Chapter 15, Problem 15.27

(choose chapter or problem)

A transverse wave pulse travels to the right along astring with a speed v = 2.0 m/s. At ? = 0 the shape of thepulse is given by the functionD = 0.45 cos (2.6a: + 1.2),where D and x are in meters, (a) Plot D vs. x at ? = 0.(b) Determine a formula for the wave pulse at any time tassuming there are no frictional losses, (c) Plot D(x, t ) vs. xat ? = 1.0 s. (d) Repeat parts (b) and (c) assuming thepulse is traveling to the left. Plot all 3 graphs on the sameaxes for easy comparison.
