Consider a non-extensible string of length L extended along the s-axis. It undergoes transverse motion while its end-points are held fixed (i.e., displacement of the end points of the string is zero). The string begins from rest with its position profile given by y(x,t=0) = Ax” (L - 2) Choose all statements that are correct. Select one or more: The subsequent motion of the string can be visualized as a linear superposition of even modes only. The subsequent motion of the string can be visualized as a linear superposition of odd modes only. Both even and odd modes contribute to the motion of the string in this problem. The first odd mode makes the dominant contribution amongst all contributing modes. The first even mode makes the dominant contribution amongst all contributing modes.
