A sinusoidal wave with a wave function y(x,t) = 0.014 sin(3Ttx+100t-Tt/3) is propagating on a taut string. The left end of the string corresponds to the origin x = 0. For an element of the string at x = 0.1 m, determine the earliest time (t > 0) at which this element has a transverse velocity v(y,max)/2.
