A heavy but uniform rope of lenth L is suspended from a ceiling. (a) Write the velocity of a transverse wave travelling on the string as a function of the distance from the lower end. (b) If the rope is given a sudden sideways jerk at the bottom, how long will it take for the pulse to reach teh celling ? (c ) A particle is dropped from the ceiling at the instant the bottom end is given the jerk where will the particle meet the pulse ?
