The displacement of a string is given by y(x,t) = 0.06 sin (2πx/3) cos (120πt) where x and y are in m and t in s. The length of the string is 1.5m and its mass is 3.0* .
(a) It represents a progressive wave of frequency 60Hz.
(b) It represents a stationary wave of frequency 60Hz.
(c) It is the result of superposition of two waves of wavelength 3 m, frequency 60Hz each travelling with a speed of 180 m/s in opposite direction.
(d) Amplitude of this wave is constant.

This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar
(b, c) y (x, t) = 0.06 sin (2πx/3) cos (120πt)
(a) y (x, t)=asinkxcoswt
(b) w=120 , f=60hz
(c) k=2 , v =60 (3)=180m/s
(d) since in stationary wave all particles of the medium executes SHM with varying amplitude nodes.
