Trigonometric Graphs problem 46


A wave is described by the function , where:


  • is the current offset of the observed point


  • is the wave amplitude of the oscillating particles of matter


  • is the wave frequency


  • is the wave velocity


  • the distance of the observed point from the source of the wave


  • is the elapsed time


The wave propagates through a substance, which is described by the equation:




The sketch below is for the performance only, it does not represent the given function:




  • Obtain the wave frequency and the wave speed .


  • What is the distance from the wave source to the point that is 36cm farther away after 10 seconds?


  • What is the displacement of the point located 14cm farther away from the source at the same instant?
