What is the period of a wave described by the following function? y(x,t) = (2.00 m)cos(6.00 m-1)x + (10.00 s-1)t + (2.00 m)cos(3.00 m-1)x + (5.00 s-1)t
 
  A)
 
  0.628 s
  B)
 
  5.00 s
  C)
 
  1.26 s
  D)
 
  10.0 s
  E)
 
  This is not a periodic function, so it does not have a period.

Question 2

What is the wavelength of a wave described by the following function: y(x,t) = (2.00 m)cos(3.00 m-1)x + (5.00 s-1)t
 
  A)
 
  2.09 m
 
  B)
 
  3.00 m
 
  C)
 
  5.00 m
 
  D)
 
  1.26 m
 
  E)
 
  0.333 m
