$A$ transverse wave of amplitude $0.5\, m$,wavelength $1\, m$,and frequency $2\, Hz$ is propagating in a string in the negative $x$-direction. The expression for this wave is:

  • A
    $y(x, t) = 0.5\sin(2\pi x - 4\pi t)$
  • B
    $y(x, t) = 0.5\cos(2\pi x + 4\pi t)$
  • C
    $y(x, t) = 0.5\sin(\pi x - 2\pi t)$
  • D
    $y(x, t) = 0.5\cos(2\pi x + 2\pi t)$
