A wave in a string has an amplitude of \(2\) cm. The wave travels in the positive direction of the \(x\text-\)axis with a speed of \(128~\text{m/s}\) and it is noted that \(5\) complete waves fit in the \(4\) m length of the string. The equation describing the wave is:
1. \(y =(0.02~\text{m})\sin(7.85x+1005t)\)
2. \(y =(0.02~\text{m})\sin(15.7x-2010t)\)
3. \(y =(0.02~\text{m})\sin(15.7x+2010t)\)
