Halliday, Resnick & Walker — Waves–I: Problem Problem_81

A sinusoidal transverse wave traveling in the negative direction of an \(x\) axis has an amplitude of \(1.00\text{ cm}\), a frequency of \(550\text{ Hz}\), and a speed of \(330\text{ m/s}\). If the wave equation is of the form \(y(x, t) = y_m \sin(kx \pm \omega t)\), what are (a) \(y_m\), (b) \(\omega\), (c) \(k\), and (d) the correct choice of sign in front of \(\omega\)?
