5. [5pt]
A tightrope walker notices a scorpion on the middle of the
tightrope. Trying to shake the scorpion loose by wiggling the end
of the tightrope, the walker causes a transverse sinusoidal wave to
propagate with amplitude A = 0.028 m and wavelength λ = 12.9 m. If
the tightrope is under tension T = 26.4 kN and has a linear density
µ = 504 g/m, what minimum amplitude would cause the scorpion to
become momentarily weightless as the wave passes under it? [ans.
7.89×10-4 m]
