3. A string of a piano is struck and produces a standing wave in x-direction. The standing wave
is expressed by y(x, t) = 1 x 10- sin nx sin 2nt where x and y are in meter and time t in
second. Which statement(s) is/are CORRECT about the situation?
A. The speed of the traveling wave which formed the standing wave is 2n m/s.
B. The wavelength of the traveling wave which formed the standing wave is 2 m.
C. The frequency of the standing wave is 1 Hz
D. The period of the standing wave is moving to the right.
