A wave pulse travels along a string at a speed of 250 cm/s . Note that parts a - d are independent and refer to changes made to the original string. Units in cm/s. Pease show work, thank you.

A) What will be the speed if the string's tension is doubled?

B) What will be the speed if the string's mass is quadrupled (but its length is unchanged)?

C) What will be the speed if the string's length is quadrupled (but its mass is unchanged)?

D) What will be the speed if the string's mass and length are both quadrupled?

A sinusoidal wave is traveling on a string with speed 34.9 cm/s. The displacement of the particles of the string at x = 5.9 cm is found to vary with time according to the equation y = (3.9 cm) sin[1.2 - (7.1 s-1)t]. The linear density of the string is 4.8 g/cm. What are (a) the frequency and (b) the wavelength of the wave? If the wave equation is of the form y(x,t) = ym sin(kx - ωt), what are...
