Learning Goal: How do 2 ordinary waves build up a "standing" wave? A very generic formula for a traveling wave is: y1(x,t)=Asin(

kx−ωt). This general mathematical form can represent the displacement of a string, or the strength of an electric field, or the height of the surface of water, or a large number of other physical waves!
Part C Find ye(x) and yt(t). Remember that yt(t) must be a trig function of unit amplitude. Express your answers in terms of A, k, x, ω, and t. Separate the two functions with a comma. Use parentheses around the argument of any trig functions.

Part E At the position x=0, what is the displacement of the string (assuming that the standing wave ys(x,t) is present)? Part G From

Part F we know that the string is perfectly straight at time t=π2ω. Which of the following statements does the string's being straight imply about the energy stored in the string?

a.There is no energy stored in the string: The string will remain straight for all subsequent times.

b.Energy will flow into the string, causing the standing wave to form at a later time.

c.Although the string is straight at time t=π2ω, parts of the string have nonzero velocity. Therefore, there is energy stored in the string.

d.The total mechanical energy in the string oscillates but is constant if averaged over a complete cycle.
