You are given two strings of different densities tied together. You shake the first string up and down once, causing a wave pulse. The wavelength is 25cm and at t=0, the leading edge of the wave is 5cm from the interface of the two strings. In the second string, the wave will have twice the wavelength. In the first string, the wave travels at 0.5m/s
a) How does the period of the wave compare on each of the strings?
b) What is the speed of the wave on string 2?
c) Which string is heavier? Justify your answer.
d) Draw the wave at t=0.
e) Draw the wave (reflected and transmitted portions as appropriate) at t=2s.
