The transverse displacement of a string (clamped at both ends) is given by $y(x, t) = 0.06 \sin \left(\frac{2 \pi}{3} x\right) \cos (120 \pi t)$,where $x$ and $y$ are in $m$ and $t$ is in $s$. The length of the string is $1.5 \; m$ and its mass is $3.0 \times 10^{-2} \; kg$. Answer the following:
$(a)$ Does the function represent a travelling wave or a stationary wave?
$(b)$ Interpret the wave as a superposition of two waves travelling in opposite directions. What is the wavelength,frequency,and speed of each wave?
$(c)$ Determine the tension in the string.
