A continuous succession of sinusoidal wave pulses is produced at one end of a very long string and travel along the length of the string. The wave has frequency 40.0 Hz, amplitude 5.00 mm, and wavelength 0.600 in.
(a) How long does it take the wave to travel a distance of 8.00 m along the length of the string?
(b) How long does it take a point on the string to travel a distance of 8.00 m, once the wave train has reached the point and set it into motion?
(c) In parts (a) and (b), how does the time change if the amplitude is doubled?
