A stretched string has a mass per unit length of 3.48 g/cm and a tension of 20.2 N. A sinusoidal wave on this string has an amplitude of 0.150 mm and a frequency of 101 Hz and is traveling in the negative direction of an x axis. If the wave equation is of the form y(x,t) = Ym sin(kx + wt), what are (a) ym, (b) k, and (c) w, and (d) the correct choice of sign in front of w?

Properties of sound
A sound wave is a mechanical wave (or mechanical vibration) that transit through media such as gas (air), liquid (water), and solid (wood).
Quality Of Sound
A sound or a sound wave is defined as the energy produced due to the vibrations of particles in a medium. When any medium produces a disturbance or vibrations, it causes a movement in the air particles which produces sound waves. Molecules in the air vibrate about a certain average position and create compressions and rarefactions. This is called pitch which is defined as the frequency of sound. The frequency is defined as the number of oscillations in pressure per second.
Categories of Sound Wave
People perceive sound in different ways, like a medico student takes sound as vibration produced by objects reaching the human eardrum. A physicist perceives sound as vibration produced by an object, which produces disturbances in nearby air molecules that travel further. Both of them describe it as vibration generated by an object, the difference is one talks about how it is received and other deals with how it travels and propagates across various mediums.
