1) A string held at a tension of 45 N carries a wave described by the wave function y(x, t) = 0.2 sin(6πx - 48π t) (where lengths are in meters and time is in seconds). a) What is the distance between two adjacent peaks on the wave? b) How fast does one of the wave peaks move to the right? c) What is the velocity of the string at the location of a wave peak?
