Problem

The displacement of a wave on a string is given by y=0.04cos⁡(6x−150t) ,y = 0.04\cos(6x - 150t)\,, where xx is in metres and tt in seconds. Which of the following represents a wave with the same amplitude, wavelength and frequency but travelling in the opposite direction? a) y=0.04cos⁡(−6x+150t)y = 0.04\cos(-6x + 150t) b) y=0.04cos⁡(6x+150t)y = 0.04\cos(6x + 150t) c) −0.04cos⁡(6x−150t)-0.04\cos(6x - 150t) d) y=0.04cos⁡(6x−75t)y = 0.04\cos(6x - 75t)
