Workers attach a 25.0-kg mass to one end of a 20.0-in long cable and secure the other end to the top of a stationary crane, suspending the mass in midair. If the cable has a mass of 12.0 kg, determine the speed of transverse waves at (a) the middle and (b) the bottom end of the cable. (Hint: Dont neglect the cables mass. Because of it, the tension increases from a minimum value at the bottom of the cable to a maximum value at the top.)
Check Your Understanding The wave equation 2y(x,t)x2=1v22y(x,t)t2 works for any wave of the form y(x,t)=f(xvt) . In the previous section, we stated that a cosine function could also be used to model a simple harmonic mechanical wave. Check if the wave y(x,t)=0.50mcos(0.20m1x4.00s1t+10) is a solution to the wave equation. Any disturbance that complies with the wave equation can propagate as a wave moving along the x-axis with a wave speed v. It works equally well for waves on a string, sound waves, and electromagnetic waves. This equation is extremely useful. For example, it can be used to show that electromagnetic waves move at the speed of light.

Alternatively, (d) is the speed on the bass string not necessarily any of these answers?

Consider what is shown below. A 20.00-kg mass rests on a frictionless ramp inclined at 45° . A string with a linear mass density of =0.025 kg/m is attached to the 20.00-kg mass.

(a) What is the mass of the hanging mass (m)? (b) At what wave speed does the wave travel up the string?
A cable with a linear density of =0.2 kg/m is hung from telephone poles. The tension in the cable is 500.00 N. The distance between poles is 20 meters.
