### Wave Analysis

Consider the wave equation given by:

\[ \vec{E}(x, t) = -\hat{y} 9.25 \cos \left(10^5 \pi t + \frac{\pi}{18} x + \frac{\pi}{3} \right) \]

Let's extract some key properties of this wave:

- **The Phase Velocity:** The phase velocity \( v_p \) of the wave.
- **The Period of the Wave:** The period \( T \) of the wave.
- **The Wavelength:** The distance \( \lambda \) between successive peaks of the wave.
- **The Direction of Propagation:** The direction in which the wave is moving.
- **The Attenuation Number:** Any attenuation factor, if present, that signifies how the wave diminishes in amplitude over distance or time.

### Analysis

1. **The Phase Velocity ( \( v_p \) ):** 
   Phase velocity \( v_p \) is given by \( v_p = \frac{\omega}{k} \), where \( \omega \) is the angular frequency and \( k \) is the wave number.

2. **The Period of the Wave ( \( T \) ):**
   The period can be derived from the angular frequency \( \omega \) using \( T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega} \).

3. **The Wavelength ( \( \lambda \) ):**
   The wavelength can be found using the wave number \( k \) with the relation \( \lambda = \frac{2\pi}{k} \).

4. **The Direction of Propagation:**
   The wave propagates in a direction determined by the sign and coefficients of \( x \) and \( t \) in the cosine argument. 

5. **The Attenuation Number:**
   The wave equation presents no exponential decay factors, so there is no attenuation implied in the provided equation.

### Detailed Derivation

1. **Finding \( k \) and \( \omega \):**
   From the given wave equation:
   \[ \vec{E}(x, t) = -\hat{y} 9.25 \cos \left(10^5 \pi t + \frac{\pi}{18} x + \frac{\pi}{3} \right) \]

   - \( \omega = 10^5 \pi \)
