A transverse wave on a string bas amplitude 0.300 cm, wave length 12.0 cm, and speed 6.00 cm/s it is represented by y (x, t) as given in Exercise I5.12.
(a) At time, t = 0, compute y at1.5-<:m intervals of x (that is, at x = 0, x = 1.5 cm, x = 3.0 cm, and so on) from x = O to x = 12.0 cm. Graph the results. This is the shape of the string at time t = 0.
(b) Repeat the calculations for the same values of x at times t = 0.400 s and t = 0.800 s. Graph the shape of the string at these instants. In what direction is the wave traveling?
