A transverse wave with an amplitude of 0.200 mm and a frequency of 520 Hz moves along a tightly stretched string with a speed of 1.96 ✕ 104 cm/s. (a) If the wave can be modeled as y = A sin(kx − ωt), what are A (in m), k (in rad/m), and ω (in rad/s)? (b) What is the tension in the string, if μ = 4.10 g/m? (Give your answer in N.)

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.
