The displacement of a wave is given by $y=0.002 \sin (100t + x)$,where $x$ and $y$ are in meters and $t$ is in seconds. This represents a wave:

  • A
    of wavelength $1 \ m$
  • B
    travelling with a velocity of $100 \ m/s$ in the negative $x$-direction
  • C
    of frequency $(\frac{100}{\pi}) \ Hz$
  • D
    travelling with a velocity of $(\frac{50}{\pi}) \ m/s$ in the positive $x$-direction
