A female orb spider has a mass of (0.50 mathrm{~g}). She is suspended from a tree branch

Question:

A female orb spider has a mass of \(0.50 \mathrm{~g}\). She is suspended from a tree branch by a \(1.1 \mathrm{~m}\) length of \(0.0020-\mathrm{mm}\)-diameter silk. Spider silk has a density of \(1300 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}\). If you tap the branch and send a vibration down the thread, how long does it take to reach the spider?
