A `100 - m` long rod of density `10.0 xx 10^(4) kg//m^(3)` and having Young's modulus `Y = 10^(11) Pa`, is clamped at one end . It is hammered at the other free end. The longitudinal pulse goes to right end , gets reflected and again returns to the left end . How much time the pulse take to go back to initial point.

A

`0.1 s`

B

`0.2 s`

C

`0.3 s`

D

`2 s`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`V_(s) = sqrt((Y)/(rho)) = sqrt((10^(11))/(10.0 xx 10^(4))) = 10^(3) m//s`
` t = ( 2l)/(V) = ( 2 xx 100)/(1000) = 0.2 s`

A 1000 m long rod of density 10.0 xx 10^(4) kg//m^(3) and having young's modulus Y=10^(11) Pa , is clamped at one end. It is hammered at the other free end as shown in the figure. The logitudinal pulse goes to right end, gets reflected and again returns to the left end. How much time (in sec) the pulse take to go back to initial point ? .

A string of length 40 cm and weighing 10 g is attached to a spring at one end and to a fixed wall at the other end. The spring has a spring constant of 160 N m^-1 and is stretched by 1-0 cm. If a wave pulse is produced on the string near the wall, how much time will it take to reach the spring ?

A string of length 0.4 m and mass 10^(-2) kg is clamped at its ends. The tension in the string is 1.6 N. When a pulse travels along the string the shape of the string is found to be the same at times t and t+trianglet . The value trianglet is
