A sinusoidal transverse wave is traveling along a string in the negative direction of an x axis. Figure 16-S1 shows a plot of the displacement as a function of position at time t = 0, the scale of the y axis is set by y = 4.0 cm. The string tension is 3.6 N, and its linear density is 28 g/m. Find the (a) amplitude, (b) wavelength, (e) 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) =y_(m) sin (kx pm omega t+phi), what are (f) k, (g) omega (h) phi, and (i) the correct choice of sign in front of omega?
