Question

Problem 43

Answer 1

Given information

Given:

The cord's total mass,  

 

The cord is tension,  

 

It takes  seconds for vibration in the string to reach the other side.

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

The transverse wave is one in which the medium's particles oscillate perpendicular to the wave's propagation direction. A transverse wave can flow across a stretched string at a speed proportional to the string tension . 

 

 

 

Here,

 

is the string's mass per unit length.

 

The elapsed time multiplied by the wave speed equals the distance between the children,

 

 

 

Implies that,
