This is a sine wave with a corresponding phasor diagram to its left. Notice how the overall phase of the wave is decreasing in time due to the fact that [math]\omega t[/math] is negative. This means the phasor rotates clockwise and also guarantees that the wave travels in the +x direction.

Please try different values of the various sliders to see the effect. Notice that you can change the location along the wave, x. The phasor - even animated as it is - only corresponds to a single position in space.
