Please show formulas. I need help with part d, e, and f. 

1.
An infinitely long string stretching along the x-axis, with a tension 7 =18.0N ,
carries a transverse sinusoidal (harmonic) wave. The displacement, y(x,t),
perpendicular to the direction of travel, is:
y(x,t) = (0.350) sin((0.0500 t )x+ (300.0 7)t). In this equation the units of both
y(x,t) and x are cm and t is in seconds.

Transverse Waves

Transverse waves are a type of wave where the particles in the wave oscillate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.  

Transverse waves are represented by the equations

yx,t=Asin±kx±ωt

A is the amplitude of the wave, k is the magnitude of the propagation vector and ω is the angular frequency of the wave.
