Concept explainers

Stretched string

A stretched string is a wire which is made up of any metal that must have a larger length compared to its thickness. The ends of the wire are fixed, and when they oscillate or are plucked, it produces two reflected transverse waves of the same frequency and same amplitude. The waves or pulses are traveling in alternate directions and superimpose with one another. This waveform is named standing or stationary waves.

Question

2. Say we have a ball dropped into well with a velocity of 3.28 ft/s. After 10sec, a
sound of splash is heard. Determine the depth of the well if the velocity of sound
is 1130 ft/s.
