A wave on a string has an amplitude of 0.02 m and a period of 0.01 s. What is the maximum transverse speed of a particle

**Wave equation** y(x,t) = A sin(kx - ωt + φ) describes displacement of progressive harmonic wave, where k = 2π/λ wave number (rad/m), ω = 2πf angular frequency (rad/s), v = ω/k wave speed (m/s). Sign of ωt indicates direction, amplitude A is maximum displacement. ω = (2π/T) = (2π/0.01) = 200π rad/s . Max speed: vₘₐₓ = a ω = 0.02 × 200π ≈ 12.57 m/s . Using v = fλ and standing-wave condition fₙ = n v/(2L) or v/(4L) as applicable, calculation yields 12.6 m/s, illustrating frequency-length-speed interdependence and quantization by boundaries.
