The formula for the speed of transverse waves on a spring is the same as for a
Question:
(a) A spring is stretched to a length much greater than its relaxed length. Explain why the tension in the spring is approximately proportional to the length.
(b) A wave takes 4.00 s to travel from one end of such a spring to the other. Then the length is increased 10.0%. Now how long does a wave take to travel the length of the spring? [Is the mass per unit length constant?]
