Stretched string

A stretched string is a wire which is made up of any metal that must have a larger length compared to its thickness. The ends of the wire are fixed, and when they oscillate or are plucked, it produces two reflected transverse waves of the same frequency …

Textbook Question

Chapter 15, Problem 15.13E

A transverse wave on a string has amplitude 0.300 cm, wavelength 12.0 cm, and speed 6.00 cm/s. It is represented by y(x, t) as given in Exercise 15.12. (a) At time t = 0, compute y at 1.5-cm intervals of x (that is, at x = 0, x = 1.5 cm, x = 3.0 cm, and so on) from x = 0 to x = 12.0 cm. Graph the results. This is the shape of the string at time t = 0. (b) Repeat the calculations for the same values of x at times t = 0.400 s and t = 0.800s. Graph the shape of the string at these instants. In what direction is the wave traveling?
