Problem

A transverse wave on a rope is represented by y=0.03 sin⁡ (4πx−100πt)y = 0.03\,\sin\,(4\pi x - 100\pi t), where all quantities are in SI units. For the particle located at x=0x = 0, the smallest positive time (after t=0t=0) at which its velocity becomes zero while its acceleration attains the maximum magnitude is (a) 0.010 s0.010\,\text{s} (b) 0.020 s0.020\,\text{s} (c) 0.005 s0.005\,\text{s} (d) 0.0025 s0.0025\,\text{s}
