A transverse wave on a sting described by the wave functiony(x, t) = 0.350 sin (1.25x + 99.6t)where x and y are in meters anti t is in seconds. Consider the element of the string at x= 0. (a) What is the time interval between the first two instants when this element hasa position of y = 0.175 m? (b) What distance does the wave travel during the timeinterval found in part (a)?

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.
