The wave equation for a transverse wave is
y(x,t) = ym sin ( kx - t )
Where y(x,t) is the displacement of an element of the wave
Wave speed v = / k
Where is the angular
frequency
f = 23 s-1 , = 23
rad /s
k = 1.6 m-1
v = 23 / 1.6 = 14.375 m / s
The tension in the string
T = v2
Where T is the tension in the string and is the linear
density of the string
