The black sinusoidal curve in the graph above represents a traveling wave. Enter the function corresponding to this curve, then press the 'Check Answer' button. The functon you enter should be expressed in terms of the variables x and t. The curve corresponding to your equation will be drawn in red. Be sure to click the play button to verify that the black and red curves overlap at all times.
