A long string, having a cross-sectional area 0.80 mm2 and density 12.5 g cm-3, is subjected to a tension of 64 N along the positive x-axis. One end of this string is attached to a vibrator at x=0, moving in the transverse direction at a frequency of 20 Hz. At t=0, the source is at maximum displacement, y=1.0 cm.

(a) Find the speed of the wave traveling on the string.
(b) Write the equation for the wave.
(c) What is the displacement of the particle of the string at x=50 cm at time, t=0.05 s?
(d) What is the velocity of this particle at this instant?

One end of each of two identical springs, each of force constant 0.5 N m-1, are attached on the opposite sides of a wooden block of mass 0.01 kg. The other ends of the springs are connected to separate rigid supports such that the springs are unstretched and are collinear in a horizontal plane. To the wooden piece is fixed a pointer which touches a vertically moving plane paper. The wooden piece kept on a smooth horizontal table is now displaced by 0.02 m along the line of springs and released. If the speed of paper is 0.1 m s-1, find the equation of the path traced by the pointer on the paper and the distance between two consecutive maxima on this path.
