Problem

Equation of a transverse wave travelling in a rope is given by y=5sin(4.0t−0.02x)y = 5 sin (4.0 t - 0.02 x) where yy and xx are expressed in cm\text{cm} and time in seconds. (a) the amplitude, frequency, velocity and wavelength of the wave. (b) the maximum transverse speed and acceleration of a particle in the rope.
