A sinusoidal transverse wave is traveling along a string in the negative direction of an x axis. Figure 16-34 shows a plot of the displacement as a function of position at time t = 0; the scale of the y axis is set by ys = 4.0 cm. The string tension is 3.6 N, and its linear density is 25 g/m. Find the (a) amplitude, (b) wavelength, (c) wave speed, and (d) period of the wave. (e) Find the maximum transverse speed of a particle in the string. If the wave is of the form y(x, t) = ym sin(kx ± ?t f), what are (f)k, (g) ?, (h) f, and (i) the correct choice of sign in front of ??
