Halliday, Resnick & Walker — Waves–I: Problem Problem_86

(a) Write an equation describing a sinusoidal transverse wave traveling on a cord in the positive direction of a y axis with an angular wave number of \(60 \text{ cm}^{-1}\), a period of \(0.20 \text{ s}\), and an amplitude of \(3.0 \text{ mm}\). Take the transverse direction to be the z direction. (b) What is the maximum transverse speed of a point on the cord?
