3. On a point on a string, a peak of a harmonic

3. On a point on a string, a peak of a harmonic wave is observed to pass every 0.050 s. The distance between peaks is 0.75 m. The height of the peak is 0.025 m. Assume that the wave is moving to the left. What is the equation of this wave (take t = 0 at the first peak)? What is the speed of the wave? The string has a linear density = 0.020 kg/m. What is the tension in the string? What is the rate of energy flow of the wave? Sketch the reference circle, the snapshot graph at t = 0, and the history graph at x = 0.
