Could you show me that equation. Maybe we haven't learned it yet.gneill said:You'll want to start with the full traveling wave equation which accounts for both time and distance from the source (the argument of the trig function for the wave has terms for both time and distance).
No we haven't done any equation with velocity except v= λ/Tgneill said:You can look it up on the web. Search for "traveling wave". For example, look at the Hyperphysics website entry.
That's the velocity that the wave travels from the source, and it is relevant here as part of the traveling wave equation. If you haven't covered it yet you'll have to read ahead in order to answer this question.zade70 said:No we haven't done any equation with velocity except v= λ/T
Displacement from the equilibrium position refers to the distance and direction of an object or system from its resting state or position of balance.
Displacement from the equilibrium position is typically measured in units of length, such as meters or centimeters, using a ruler or other measuring device.
The displacement from the equilibrium position can be affected by various factors, such as external forces acting on the object or system, changes in temperature or pressure, and the properties of the object or system itself.
Calculating the displacement from the equilibrium position allows us to understand the behavior and movement of an object or system, and can help us predict and control its motion.
The displacement from the equilibrium position is directly related to the potential energy of an object or system. As the displacement increases, so does the potential energy, and vice versa.
