The wave function ψ(x,t) = A[ei(2kx - 4ωt) - ei(4kx - 16ωt)] describes a particle oscillating in a one-dimensional path. Constants k and ω are real and positive. Determine vav using the approach where vav is the ratio of the distance moved by the maxima divided by the change in time. Hint: Use values of t in the form nπ/ω.
