A transverse sinusoidal wave is moving along a string in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 92 m/s. At t = 0, the string particle at x = 0 has a transverse displacement of 4.1 cm from its equilibrium position and is not moving. The maximum transverse speed of the string particle at x = 0 is 16 m/s. (a) What is the frequency of the wave? (b) What is the wavelength of the wave?
