Problem Statement
Solve the oscillation/wave problem: Solve the oscillation/wave problem: Transverse wave: amplitude 0.50 mm, frequency 100 Hz, wave speed 100 m/s, tension 100 N. Find average power transmitted. $P=\frac{1}{2}\mu\omega^2 A^2 v$ Step 1: $\mu=T/v^2=100/10000=0.01$ kg/m. Step 2: $\omega=2\pi\times100=200\pi$ rad/s. Step 3: $P=\frac{1}{2}\m
