What is the period of a wave described by the following function? y(x,t) = (2.00 m)cos(6.00 m-1)x + (10.00 s-1)t + (2.00 m)cos(3.00 m-1)x + (5.00 s-1)t
 
  A)
 
  0.628 s
  B)
 
  5.00 s
  C)
 
  1.26 s
  D)
 
  10.0 s
  E)
 
  This is not a periodic function, so it does not have a period.

Question 2

What is the wavelength of a wave described by the following function: y(x,t) = (2.00 m)cos(3.00 m-1)x + (5.00 s-1)t
 
  A)
 
  2.09 m
 
  B)
 
  3.00 m
 
  C)
 
  5.00 m
 
  D)
 
  1.26 m
 
  E)
 
  0.333 m

Did you know?

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
