Question:

A traveling wave on a string is described by

where x and y are in centimeters and t is in seconds.
(a) For t = 0, plot y as a function of x for 0 ‰¤ x ‰¤ 160 cm.
(b) Repeat (a) for t = 0.05 s and t = 0.10 s. From your graphs, determine
(c) The wave speed and
(d) The direction in which the wave istraveling.
