The question is incomplete, below is the complete question
"The displacement of a wave traveling in the negative y-direction is D(y,t) = ( 4.60cm ) sin ( 6.20 y+ 60.0 t ), where y is in m and t is in s.
A) What is the frequency of this wave?
B) What is the wavelength of this wave?
C) What is the speed of this wave?"
Answers:
a.
b.
c.
Explanation:
The equation of a wave is represented as
Where A=amplitude
w=angular frequency=2πf
K=wave numbers =2π/λ
since we re giving he equation D(y,t) = ( 4.60cm ) sin ( 6.20 y+ 60.0 t ),
we can compare and get the value for the wave number and angular frequency.
By comparing we have
w=60rads/s
k=6.20
a. to determine the frequency, from the expression fr angular wave frequency we have
w=2πf hence
f=w/2π
if we substitute we arrive at
b. to determine the wave length, we use
c. the wave speed v is express as the product of the frequency and the wavelength. Hence
