(d)v = 2ghmax
A wave traveling on a string has the following wave function, y(x, t) = Asin(kx + wt + w). At time
11)
t 0, the point x = 0 has a displacement of y(0,0) = 0, and is moving in the negative y-direction.
Which of the following is true about the phase constant and the wave speed direction?
(a) o = "/2, and the wave is moving in the negative x-direction.
(h)e = "/2, and the wave is moving in the positive x-direction.
