We are given
(a) The graphs of are as shown in Fig. (35) of the book (p.332).
(b) We can calculate the density as follows :
Take a parallelopiped of cross section unity and length dx with its edges at x and x + dx.
After the oscillation the edge at x goes to x + ℰ( x) and the edge at x + dx goes to x + d x + ℰ(x + dx)
Thus the volume of the element (originally dx) becomes
and hence the density becomes
On substituting we get for the density ρ(x) the curves shown in Fig.(35). referred to above.
(c) The velocity v (x) at time t = T/4 is
On plotting we get the figure (36).
