# Amplitude and frequency of a wave [closed]

What is the amplitude and frequency of the wave given by the equation: $y = A \sin^2(kx - \omega t)$ ?

Hi Lavanya. You've been in this site for sufficient number of days. You should've known that this is a site which deals with conceptual and research-level question and answers and not these basic 101 questions - which you could do using a simple googling. And BTW, Please read our homework policy before asking such questions. AFAIK, your question doesn't suite our FAQ. A simple advice - Don't ask other users to do something for ya :-) – Ϛѓăʑɏ βµԂԃϔ Dec 22 '12 at 13:47
I'm really sorry if I have violated the policy of the website, but after hours of googling I've taken this last resort. Anyways I'll be deleting it soon. – user16556 Dec 22 '12 at 13:49
Perhaps, you should've seen many other homework questions being closed here regularly. So, Please try to ask questions that suites our FAQ. Good luck... – Ϛѓăʑɏ βµԂԃϔ Dec 22 '12 at 13:51
Good questions to ask yourself here are "What does amplitude mean?" and the same for frequency. Then try graphing this thing for fixed position and for fixed time and see if you can get anywhere. – dmckee Dec 22 '12 at 13:54
I figured out the amplitude by plotting the graph but I can't get anywhere with the frequency. – user16556 Dec 22 '12 at 13:57

This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. For help making this question more broadly applicable, see the FAQ.
