Q.

A composite string is made by joining a thin and a thick uniform string joined end to end (series) and it is held fixed horizontally between two rigid walls with some tension. V is the velocity of a transverse wave in thin string. Lengths, radii of cross section and densities of materials for the two strings are 2l, r, ρ and l, 2r, 4ρ  respectively. If a small transverse wave pulse is generated at the fixed end of the thin string, the time it takes to reach the other end of composite string is

Detailed Solution

velocity of a wave in a string is V = Tπr2ρ 

so V1V2=r2r1ρ2ρ1=2rr21=4     

V1=V and V2=V4

time taken 2lV+lV/4=6lV
