The displacement of the particle at x = 0 of a stretched string carrying a wave in the positive x-direction is given by f(t) = A sin(t/T). The wave speed is v. Write the wave equation.

Sol. . At x = 0, f(t) = a sin (t/T)
Wave speed = v
⇒ λ = wavelength = vT (T = Time period)
So, general equation of wave
Y = A sin [(t/T) – (x/vT)] [because y = f((t/T) – (x/ λ))
