Question: A long slender bar is made from an unknown material. The length of the bar is 0.83 m, its cross-sectional area is 1.3 10-4
A long slender bar is made from an unknown material. The length of the bar is 0.83 m, its cross-sectional area is 1.3 × 10-4 m2, and its mass is 2.1 kg. A sound wave travels from one end of the bar to the other end in 1.9 × 10-4 s. From which one of the materials listed in Table 10.1 is the bar most likely to be made?
