Consider the following equations for traveling waves on two different strings:

(a) Which wave has the faster wave speed? What is that speed? 

(b) Which wave has the longer wavelength? What is that wavelength? 

(c) Which wave has the faster maximum speed of a point in the medium? What is that speed? 

(d) Which wave is moving in the positive x-direction?
