A transverse wave on a long horizontal rope with a
wavelength of 8 m travels at 2 m/s. At t= 0, a
particular point on the rope has a vertical
displacement of +A, where A is the amplitude of
the wave. At what time will the vertical
displacement of this same point on the rope be -A ?

The time taken by the wave to travel the vertical  displacement from the point on the rope to -A is 2 seconds

Given to us:

wavelength λ = 8 m,

Velocity v = 2 m/s,

The frequency of a wave is given by:

Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 0.25 Hz.

The period of a wave is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency,

Therefore, It takes 4 seconds to complete one full cycle.

Hence, the time taken by the wave to travel the vertical  displacement from the point on the rope to -A is 2 seconds as its is the half distance which is needed to be traveled by the wave.

2 seconds

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is related to its wavelength and  speed by the equation

where

f is the frequency

v is the speed of the wave

is the wavelength

For the wave in this problem,

v = 2 m/s

So the frequency is

The period of a wave is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency, so for this wave:

This means that the wave takes 4 seconds to complete one full cycle.

Therefore, the time taken for the wave to go from a point with displacement +A to a point with displacement -A is half the period, therefore for this wave:

answer: a) y=-8x+5

a) m= -8

b) m= -2

c) m= 7

d) m= 6

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
