A 1.80 m string of weight 0.0135 N is tied to the ceiling at its upper end, and the lower end supports a weight W. Ignore the very small variation in tension along the length of the string that is produced by the weight of the string. When you pluck the string slightly, the waves traveling up the string obey the equation y (x, t) = (8.50 mm) cos (172 rad/m x - 4830 rad/st) Assume that the tension of the string is constant and equal to W.

Concept explainers

Electromagnetic Waves

Electromagnetic waves are waves that consist of magnetic field and electric field components perpendicular to each other. These field components are also perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.

Question

100%

• How much time does it take a pulse to travel the full length of the string?
• What is the weight W?
• How many wavelengths are on the string at any instant of time?
• What is the equation for waves traveling down the string?

A 1.80 m string of weight 0.0135 N is tied to the ceiling at its upper end, and the lower end
supports a weight W. Ignore the very small variation in tension along the length of the
string that is produced by the weight of the string. When you pluck the string slightly, the
waves traveling up the string obey the equation
y (x, t) = (8.50 mm) cos (172 rad/m x - 4830 rad/s t)
Assume that the tension of the string is constant and equal to W.
