Adjacent antinodes of a standing wave on a string are 15.0 cm apart. A particle at an antinode oscillates in simple harmonic motion with amplitude 0.850 cm and period 0.0750 s. The string lies along the +x-axis and is fixed at x=0.
What is the amplitude of the two traveling waves that form this pattern?
What is the speed of the two traveling waves that form this pattern?
Find the maximum and minimum transverse speeds of a point at an antinode.
What is the shortest distance along the string between a node and an antinode?
