To solve the problem step by step, we need to find the time it takes for a disturbance to travel along a string when it is struck at one end. Here’s how to approach the problem: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Mass of the string (m) = 2.50 kg - Tension in the string (T) = 200 N - Length of the string (L) = 20.0 m ### Step 2: Calculate the mass per unit length (μ) of the string ...
