Find wavelength-frequency-speed and direction of propagation


A traveling wave on a string is given by

y(x,t) = (2.0cm)sin2p( (8.33m-1)x + (440 s-1)t ).

A)Find it's wavelength, frequency, speed, and direction of propagation.

B) Calculate the displacement y of a point on a string at x = 0.015m at t=0. Note that the angle of the sine function is in radians.
