The wave function for a traveling wave on a taut string is ( in SI units) y(x,t)= 0.350 sin(10πt - 3πx + π/4) (a) What are the speed and direction of travel of the wave? (b) What is the vertical position of an element of the string at t=0, x=0.100 111? What are (c) the wavelength and (d) the frequency of the wave? (e) What is the maximum transverse speed of an element of the string?

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.
The wave function for a traveling wave on a taut string is ( in SI units)
y(x,t)= 0.350 sin(10πt - 3πx + π/4)
(a) What are the speed and direction of travel of the wave?
(b) What is the vertical position of an element of the string at t=0, x=0.100 111?
What are (c) the wavelength and
(d) the frequency of the wave?
(e) What is the maximum transverse speed of an element of the string?
