Progressive waves

Progressive waves problem 18

« previous problem | next problem »

We observe a wave traveling to the right along a rope. At some point, an image of the wave is captured when the red sticker on the rope is on the crest of the wave as shown in the figure below.

Draw an image of this wave after 1/4 of the oscillation period.
Draw an image of the wave when it is shifted by 1.5 wavelengths.
How does the red sticker on the rope swing?
