Describe two experiments to determine the speed of propagation of a transverse wave on a rope. You have the following tools to use: a stopwatch, a meter stick, a mass-measuring scale, and a force-measuring device. Use whatever other items you need for your experiments.

#See solution for details.

Explanation:

1.

Tools:.

:Calculate the speed of the wave using the time, it takes to travel along the rope. Rope's length, is measured using the meter stick.

-Attach one end of rope to a wall or post, shake from the unfixed end to generate a pulse. Measure the the time it takes for the pulse to reach the wall once it starts traveling using the stopwatch.

-Speed of the pulse can then be obtained as:

: Apply force of known value to the rope then use the following relation equation to find the speed of a pulse that travels on the rope.

-Use the measuring stick and measuring scale to determine values of the rope then obtain .

-Use the force measuring constant to determine . These values can the be substituted in to obtain

the current is 0.6

voltage ÷ resistance = current

so 12 ÷ 20 = 0.6
