Exhibit 16-3
Four wave functions are given below.
| I. | y(x, t) = 5sin(4x- 20t + 4) |
| II. | y(x, t) = 5sin(3x- 12t + 5) |
| III. | y(x, t) = 5cos(4x + 24t + 6) |
| IV. | y(x, t) = 14cos(2x- 8t + 3) |
Use this exhibit to answer the following question(s).
Refer to Exhibit 16-3. Rank the wave functions in order of the magnitude of the wavelengths, from least to greatest.
