One end of a 2.00 kg rope is tied to support at the top of a mine shaft 80.0 m deep. The rope is stretched taut by a 20.0 kg box of rocks attached at the bottom. A geologist at the bottom of the shaft signals to a colleague at the top by jerking the rope sideways. What is the speed of a transverse wave on the rope? 74 m/s 100 m/s 88 m/s 20 m/s
