Question 19

A motor produces a transverse wave along a row of connected rods in a wave machine. A sensor records 36 complete oscillations at one position during 1.8 s. A 0.75 m section has a trough at its left-hand end and a crest at its right-hand end. It also contains two crests between its ends.
