Transverse wave problem. It's a doozy

[Mr. Sinister]

Transverse wave problem... It's a doozy!

Homework Statement

A certain transverse wave is described by the equation,
y(x,t)=(2 m) sin[(174.5 s -1)t - (22.44 m-1) x]. What is the frequency,wave's period, wavelength, and wave speed?

Homework Equations

v=wavelength * f= wavelength/T

The Attempt at a Solution

I believe that 174.5 is the frequency. That is all that I know that could be correct. Could somebody please throw some more equations my way and possibly give me some hints. Thanks.

174.5 is more likely to be an angular frequency... you should be able to relate that to regular frequency and period quite easily. your relevant equations should take care of the rest
