Transcribed Image Text:A wave pulse travels down a slinky. The mass of the slinky is m = 0.89 kg
and is initially stretched to a length L = 7.1 m. The wave pulse has an
amplitude of A = 0.2 m and takes t = 0.426 s to travel down the stretched
length of the slinky. The frequency of the wave pulse is f = 0.48 Hz.
1) What is the speed of the wave pulse?
16.67
m/s Submit
2) What is the tension in the slinky?
34.834
N Submit
3) What is the average speed of a piece of the slinky as a complete wave
pulse passes?
0.384
m/s Submit
4) What is the wavelength of the wave pulse?
34.72
m Submit
+)
5) Now the slinky is stretched to twice its length (but the total mass does
not change).
What is the new tension in the slinky? (assume the slinky acts as a
spring that obeys Hooke's Law)
69.64
N Submit
6) What is the new mass density of the slinky?
0.0627
kg/m Submit
7) What is the new time it takes for a wave pulse to travel down the
slinky?
Submit
8) If the new wave pulse has the same frequency, what is the new
wavelength?
m Submit
