A transverse wave of amplitude 2 m, wavelength 4 m and frequency 6 Hz is propagating in a string toward positive y-direction. The equation of the wave may be (y is in m and t is in s)

One end of a long string of linear mass density 10^(-2) kg m^(-1) is connected to an electrically driven tuning fork of frequency 150 Hz. The other end passes over a pulley and is tied to a pan containig a mass of 90 kg. the pulley end absorbs all the incoming energy so that reflected waves from this end have neglidible amplitude , At t =0, the left end (fork end ) of the string is at x=0 has a transverse displacement of 2.5 cm and is moving along positive y-direction. the amplitude of the wave is 5 cm. write down the transverse displacement y (in cetimetres) as function of x(in metres) and t (in seconds ) that describes the wave on the string.

The velocity of a particle moving in the positive direction of x-axis veries as v=10sqrtx . Assuming that at t=0 , particle was at x=0

A transverse sinusoidal wave is generated at one end of a long horizontal string by a bar that moves the end up and down through a distance by 2.0 cm . the motion of bar is continuous and is repeated regularly 125 times per second. If klthe distance between adjacent wave crests is observed to be 15.6 cm and the wave is moving along positive x- direction, and at t=0 the element of the string at x=0 is at mean position y =0 and is moving downward, the equation of the wave is best described by

One end of a long string of linear mass dnesity 8.0xx10^(-3)kgm^(-1) is connected to an electrically driven tuning fork of frequency 256 Hz. The other end passes over a pulley and is tied to a pan containing a mass of 90 kg. The pulley end absorbs all the incoming energy so that reflected waves at this end have negligible amplitude. At t=0 the left end (fork end) of the string x=0 has zero transverse displacement (y=0) and is moving along positive y-direction. The amplitude of the wave is 5.0 cm. Write down the transverse displacement y as function of x and t that describest the wave on the string.
