Given, frequency of sound wave n=845 \mathrm{~Hz}

Speed of sound wave V=332 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}

Total distance =8 \mathrm{~cm}

Amplitude A=4 \mathrm{~cm}=4 \times 10^{-2}=0.04 \mathrm{~m}

{\omega}=2\pi n= 2\times 3.14\times 845

 {\omega}=\frac{1690 \times 314}{100}=169 \times 314 \times 10^{-1} \\

 \omega=53066 \times 10^{-1} \\

 \omega=5.3 \times 10^3 \mathrm{rad} / \mathrm{s} \\

 K=\frac{\omega}{v}=\frac{5.3 \times 10^3}{332} \\

 K=0.159 \times 10^3 \\

K=159 \mathrm{~m}^{-1}

mathematical expression of the given travelling wave

 =A \sin (k n-w t) \\

 =0.04 \sin \left[159 x-\left(5.3 \times 10^3\right) t\right]
