Question

A wave is generated on a taut string described by the following function:

y(x,t)=(25mm)cos(30pit-2pix)

where x is in meters and t in seconds. In what direction is the wave traveling? What is the tranverse speed for a point on the string at an instant when the point has the displacement y=+20mm


Sorry I couldnt find symbol for pi so I just had to write the word pi.
