Progressive waves
 

Progressive waves problem 2


The source of a longitudinal wave oscillates with a frequency of 50 Hz. The wave propagates along a spring. At time 0 s, the particles are initially in equilibrium. At a time of 58 ms and at a distance of 0.6 m, the deviation of the particles from the equilibrium position is 6 mm. At what amplitude do the particles oscillate at the source if the speed of the wave is ?
