What happens at x = 0 as a function of time?
F(0, t) = FP sin (-t)
F
For x = 0 and t = 0  F(0, 0) = FP sin (0)
For x = 0 and t = t  F (0, t) = FP sin (0 – t) = FP sin (– t)
This is equivalent to: kx = - t  x = - (/k) t
F(x=0) at time t is the same as F[x=-(/k)t] at time 0
The wave moves to the right with speed /k
