When you "crack" a knuckle, you suddenly widen the knuckle cavity, allowing more volume for the synovial fluid inside it and causing a gas bubble suddenly to appear in the fluid. The sudden production of the bubble, called "cavitation", produces a sound pulse---the cracking sound. Assume that the sound is transmitted uniformly in all directions and that it fully passes from the knuckle interior to the outside, at a distance of 0.29 m from your ear. If the pulse has a sound level of 61 dB at your ear, what is the rate at which energy is produced by the cavitation

Answer:If a wave y(x, t) = (6.0 mm) sin(kx + (600 rad/s)t + Φ) travels along a string, how much time does any given point on the string take to move between displacements y = +2.0 mm and y = -2.0 mm?
