A sinusoidal wave of angular frequency 1,203 rad/s and amplitude 3.1 mm is sent along a cord with linear density 3.9 g/m and tension 1,871 N. What is the average rate at which energy is transported by the wave to the opposite end of the cord? Give SI unit.

Answer:

18.7842493212 W

Explanation:

T = Tension = 1871 N

[tex]\mu[/tex] = Linear density = 3.9 g/m

y = Amplitude = 3.1 mm

[tex]\omega[/tex] = Angular frequency = 1203 rad/s

Average rate of energy transfer is given by

[tex]P=\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{T\mu}\omega^2y^2\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{1871\times 3.9\times 10^{-3}}\times 1203^2\times (3.1\times 10^{-3})^2\\\Rightarrow P=18.7842493212\ W[/tex]

The average rate at which energy is transported by the wave to the opposite end of the cord is 18.7842493212 W
