$A$ sinusoidal progressive wave is generated in a string. Its equation is given by $y = (2 \text{ mm}) \sin(2\pi x - 100\pi t + \pi/3)$. The time when the particle at $x = 4 \text{ m}$ first passes through the mean position will be:

$A$ transverse harmonic wave on a string is described by $y(x, t) = 3.0 \sin (36t + 0.018x + \pi/4)$,where $x$ and $y$ are in $cm$ and $t$ is in $s$. The positive direction of $x$ is from left to right.
$(a)$ Is this a travelling wave or a stationary wave? If it is travelling,what are the speed and direction of its propagation?
$(b)$ What are its amplitude and frequency?
$(c)$ What is the initial phase at the origin?
$(d)$ What is the least distance between two successive crests in the wave?

During the propagation of a plane progressive mechanical wave,which of the following statements is incorrect?

$A$ progressive wave of frequency $400 \ Hz$ is travelling with velocity $336 \ m/s$. How far apart are the two points on a wave which are $60^{\circ}$ out of phase (in $m$)?

What is a progressive wave?

The equation of a progressive wave is given by $y = a \sin \pi [\frac{t}{2} - \frac{x}{4}]$,where $t$ is in seconds and $x$ is in meters. The distance through which the wave moves in $8 \ s$ is .... $(m)$
