Chapter 16, Problem 24

(choose chapter or problem)

In Fig. 16-36a, string 1 has a linear density of 3.00 g/m, and string 2 has a linear density of 5.00 g/m. They are under tension due to the hanging block of mass M 500 g. Calculate the wave speed on (a) string 1 and (b) string 2. (Hint: When a string loops halfway around a pulley, it pulls on the pulley with a net force that is twice the tension in the string.) Next the block is divided into two blocks (with M1 M2 M) and the apparatus is rearranged as shown in Fig. 16-36b. Find (c) M1 and (d) M2 such that the wave speeds in the two strings are equal.
