The transverse displacement $y(x, t)$ of a wave on a string is given by $y(x, t) = e^{-(ax^2 + bt^2 + 2\sqrt{ab}xt)}$. This represents a

$A$ plane wave $y = A \sin \omega \left( t - \frac{x}{v} \right)$ undergoes normal incidence on a plane boundary separating medium $M_1$ and $M_2$ and splits into a reflected and transmitted wave having speeds $v_1$ and $v_2$. Then:

The equation of a wave traveling along the $x$-axis is given by $y(x, t) = 0.005 \cos(\alpha x - \beta t)$. If the wavelength and time period of the wave are $0.08 \ m$ and $2.0 \ s$ respectively,find the values of $\alpha$ and $\beta$ in appropriate units.

Write the equation of the relation between wave speed,wavelength,and time period.
