Problem

y1=8sin⁡(ωt−kx)y_1 = 8 \sin(\omega t - kx) and y2=6sin⁡(ωt+kx)y_2 = 6 \sin(\omega t + kx) are two waves travelling in a string of area of cross-section ss and density ρ\rho . These two waves are superimposed to produce a standing wave. (a) Find the energy of the standing wave between two consecutive nodes. (b) Find the total amount of energy crossing through a node per second.
