Problem

A crest of a sinusoidal wave on a stretched string is located at x=0x = 0 at t=0t = 0. At t=0.03 st = 0.03\,\text{s} the same crest is observed at x=0.12 mx = 0.12\,\text{m} towards the right. If the wavelength of the wave is 0.48 m0.48\,\text{m}, determine: (i) the speed of propagation (ii) the frequency of the wave (iii) the direction of travel
