Question 1
A wave described by the equation y = 0.5 sin(3x - 5t) hits a rigid boundary. Write down the equation of the reflected wave.
💡 Hint: Consider the phase change that occurs upon reflection.
Question 2
Describe the formation of standing waves in a tube with one end open and the other closed. Identify the nodes and antinodes.
💡 Hint: Relate it to the boundary conditions and the nature of wave reflections.
