A transverse wave with an amplitude of 0.200 mm and a frequency of 570 Hz moves along a tightly stretched string with a speed of 1.96×104 cm/s. (a) If the wave can be modeled as y = Asin⁡(kx − ωt), what are A (in m), k (in rad/m), and ω (in rad/s)? A = m k = rad/m ω = rad/s (b) What is the tension in the string, if μ = 4.20 g/m ? (Give your answer in N.) N

A transverse wave with an amplitude of 0.200 m m and a frequency of 570 H z moves along a tightly stretched string with a speed of 1.96 × 10 4 c m / s . (a) If the wave can be modeled as y = A sin ( k x ω t ) , what are A (in m), k (in rad/m), and ω (in rad/s)?
A = m k = r a d / m ω = r a d / s
(b) What is the tension in the string, if μ = 4.20 g / m ? (Give your answer in N.) N
