(a) Show that wave function of plane wave may be written as 2 77 λ y(x, t) = A cos -(x - vt) (b) Use y (x, t) to to find an expression for the transverse velocity vy of a particle in the string on which the wave travels. (c) Find the maximum speed of a particle of the string. Under what circumstances is this equal to the propagation speed v? Less than v? Greater than v?
