$A$ wave travelling along a string is described by,
$y(x, t) = 0.005 \sin (80.0 x - 3.0 t)$
In which the numerical constants are in $SI$ units ($0.005 \, m, 80.0 \, rad \, m^{-1},$ and $3.0 \, rad \, s^{-1}$). Calculate
$(a)$ the amplitude,
$(b)$ the wavelength,and
$(c)$ the period and frequency of the wave.
Also,calculate the displacement $y$ of the wave at a distance $x = 30.0 \, cm$ and time $t = 20 \, s$.

The speed of a wave in a certain medium is $960\, m/s$. If $3600$ waves pass over a certain point of the medium in $1\, minute$,the wavelength is .... $metres$.
