[geoffreythelm]

Homework Statement

Consider the wave described by:
E= 3 sin [pi (x/c - t)*10^13+ pi/6]

True or false?
34. The frequency = 10E13 Hz.
35. The wavelength = 3E-6 m.
36. The direction of motion: positive x direction.
37. The speed = 300 000 km/s.
38. The maximum amplitude = 9
39. The initial phase = π/c
40. It is linearly polarised.

I think you will need to include a phase term in this.

What have you tried?
