A sinusoidal wave is traveling on a string with speed 4.0 cm/s. Thedisplacement of the particles of the string at x = 20 cm is foundto vary with time according to the equation y = (5.0 cm) sin[10.0 -(2.0 s-1)t]. The linear density of the string is 6.0 g/cm.
(a) What is the frequency of the wave?


(b) What is the wavelength of the wave?


(c) Give the general equation giving the transverse displacement ofthe particles of the string as a function of position andtime.
y(x,t) = ( ) sin[( )x - ( )t]

(d) What is the tension in the string?
