Figure shows a string of linear mass density `1.0g cm^(-1)` on which a wave pulse is travelling. Find the time taken by pulse in travelling through a distance of `50 cm` on the string. Take `g = 10 ms^(-2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, `m=1g//cm=10^(-3)kg//10^(-2)m=10^(-1)kg//m, T=1kg wt. =10N`
`upsilon=sqrt(T//m)=sqrt(10//10^(-1))=10m//s`
Time taken, `t=(distance)/(velocity)=(0.5)/(10)=0.05s`
