sinusoidal wave traveling in the negative x direction (to the left) has an amplitude of 20.0 cm, a wavelength of 35.0 cm, and a frequency of 12.0 Hz. The transverse position of an element of the medium at t = 0, x = 0 is y = −3.00 cm, and the element has a positive velocity here. (a) sketch the wave at t=0 (b) find the angular wave number, period, angular frequency and wave speed of the wave. (c) Write an expression for the wave function

Seiche
A seiche is an oscillating standing wave in a body of water. The term seiche pronounced saysh) can be understood by the sloshing of water back and forth in a swimming pool. The same phenomenon happens on a much larger scale in vast bodies of water including bays and lakes. A seizure can happen in any enclosed or semi-enclosed body of water.
