Question: A transverse wave on a string is described by the following wave function. y = 0 . 1 0 5 sin 9 x + 3

A transverse wave on a string is described by the following wave function.
y =
0.105 sin
9
x +3t
where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds.
(a) Determine the transverse speed at t =0.140 s for an element of the string located at x =1.80 m.
m/s
(b) Determine the transverse acceleration at t =0.140 s for an element of the string located at x =1.80 m.
Given the equation for the vertical position of elements of the string as a function of time, how do you determine the velocity of those elements as a function of time? m/s2
