A wave pulse moves along a strip of rubber with a velocity of 10 cm/s as depicted in Figure P12.66. Five equally spaced points are marked on the rubber strip labeled A though E as shown.?

(a) Rank the points, from highest to lowest, according to the average vertical speed of each point during the next 0.50 s of the wave pulse?s travel.?

(b) Calculate the average velocity of point C over the same 0.50-s time interval.

Figure P12.66
