Learning Goal: use harmonic wave equation principles to analyze properties of a harmonic wave.

A transverse harmonic wave travels on a rope according to the following equation:

$y(x,t)=0\mathrm{.}13sin(2\mathrm{.}3x+17\mathrm{.}7t)$

The mass density of the rope is $=0\mathrm{.}11k\frac{g}{m}.$ The positions $x$ and $y$ are measured in meters, and $t$ is measured in seconds.
