A transverse wave propagates along a string of linear mass density 0.077 kg/m in the positive-x direction. The displacement of the string at t = 0 s and x = 0 cm is shown in the figures below (note the units on the axes!). Determine the following quantities. A. (6 points) From simply looking at the graphs, what is the period (T), wavelength (λ), and amplitude (ym) of the wave?
