The equation of a transverse wave traveling along a very long string is
Ā
where x and y are expressed in centimeters and t is in seconds.
Determine (a) the amplitude, (b) the wavelength, (c) the frequency, (d) the speed, (e) the direction of propagation of the wave, and (f) the maximum transverse speed of a particle in the string. (g) What is the transverse displacement at x = 3.5 cm when t = 0.26 s?
