$A$ string of length $0.5 \text{ m}$ and mass $10^{-3} \text{ kg}$ is tightly clamped at its ends. The tension in the string is $0.8 \text{ N}$. Identical wave pulses are produced at one end at equal intervals of time $\Delta t$. What is the minimum value of $\Delta t$ which allows constructive interference between successive pulses (in $\text{ s}$)?

  • A
    $0.40$
  • B
    $0.20$
  • C
    $0.10$
  • D
    $0.05$

$A$ standing wave pattern is formed on a string. One of the waves is given by the equation $y_1 = a \cos(\omega t - kx + \pi/3)$. Find the equation of the other wave such that at $x = 0$,a node is formed.

The wave pattern on a stretched string is shown in the figure. Interpret what kind of wave this is and find its wavelength.

$A$ standing wave exists in a string of length $150 \ cm$,which is fixed at both ends with rigid supports. The displacement amplitude of a point at a distance of $10 \ cm$ from one of the ends is $5\sqrt{3} \ mm$. The nearest distance between two points,within the same loop and having a displacement amplitude equal to $5\sqrt{3} \ mm$,is $10 \ cm$. Find the maximum displacement amplitude of the particles in the string (in $mm$).
