Given the wave function: y(x, t) = 5sin27(0.2x - 3t); (x = meters, t = sec.): what are the amplitude, frequency, wavelength, angular frequency and phase velocity of the wave? in which direction is it traveling? (note: this wave is not a light wave traveling in a vacuum so va = 3 x 108 is not valid)

Explanation:

Y = 5 Sin27( .2x-3t)

= 5 Sin(5.4x - 81 t )

Amplitude = 5 m

Angular frequency ω = 81

frequency = ω / 2π

= 81 / (2 x 3.14 )

=12.89

Wave length λ = 2π / k ,

k = 5.4

λ = 2π / 5.4

= 1.163 m

Phase velocity =ω / k

= 81 / 5.4

15 m / s.

The wave is travelling in + ve x - direction.

there was no answer choices but i think its representative

an electric circuit
