Homework Statement
The equation of a wave along the x-axis is given as: ξ cm = 4.9 sin (1.06 x - 0.77 t)
in which ξ is the displacement. Units on the right hand side are 1/cm for К and 1/s for ω.
Determine the the traveling speed of the wave.
Express the result in the unit m/s and to three significant figures. If you must use scientific notation, please enter as follows: e.g. 0.000123 = 1.23E-4. Only answer in numerical values, no units. For negative numbers, leave no space between the negative sign and the number: e.g. right: -1.00, wrong: - 1.00.
Homework Equations
I would think V= w/k
The Attempt at a Solution
V = 0.77/1.06
= 0.726
This is the wrong answer
