Detailed Solution

The Transmitted power at any point on the string (executing wave motion) is given by: P=ω2A2Fcos2(ωtkx)v

The Total energy (up to time ‘t’) =0tP  dt

The total energy varies with time (for each point), only the average Power delivered is independent of time. Hence the assertion is False. However energy for the entire string would be conserved. From the wave equation
