A 2.00 kg block hangs from a rubber cord, being supported so thatthe cord is not stretched. The unstretched length of the cord is0.500 m, and its mass is 4.30 g. The"spring constant" for the cord is 105N/m. The block is released, and stops at the lowest point.
(a) Determine the tension in the cord when theblock is at this lowest point.
N
(b) What is the length of the cord in this "stretched"position?
m
(c) Find the speed of a transverse wave in the cord if the block isheld in this lowest position.
