Part 1: A rope has one end tied to a vertical support. You hold the other end so that the rope is horizontal. If you move the end of the rope back and forth with a frequency of 4 Hz, the transverse wave you produce has a wavelength of 0.5 m. What is the speed of the wave in the rope?a. 0.13 m/sb. 8 m/sc. 2 m/sd. 4 m/s

Answer:

c. 2 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by:

[tex]v=f \lambda[/tex]

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength

For the wave in this problem, we have

f = 4 Hz is the frequency

[tex]\lambda = 0.5 m[/tex] is the wavelength

So, the speed of the wave is

[tex]v=(4 Hz)(0.5 m)=2 m/s[/tex]
