How drive works Calculate time in one pulse?

Ø How drive works, Calculate time in one pulse.


If A pulse in a less dense medium is traveling towards the boundary with a more dense medium. Why is The speed of the transmitted pulse will be less than the speed of the incident pulse?

The speed is Inversely dependent on the density of the medium, s=c/n(density)


What is the medium of a slinky?

Slinky coils


How do you calculate force if you only have speed?

You cannot calculate force with only speed.


What is equilibrium position in sound waves?

Equilibrium position of A wave: "When wave is in rest position its called equilibrium position of a wave" Definition:- A wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium from one location to another location. \ Example: Consider a slinky wave as an example of a wave. When the slinky is stretched from end to end and is held at rest, it assumes a natural position known as the equilibrium or rest position. The coils of the slinky naturally assume this position, spaced equally far apart. To introduce a wave into the slinky, the first particle is displaced or moved from its equilibrium or rest position. The particle might be moved upwards or downwards, forwards or backwards; but once moved, it is returned to its original equilibrium or rest position. The act of moving the first coil of the slinky in a given direction and then returning it to its equilibrium position creates a disturbance in the slinky. We can then observe this disturbance moving through the slinky from one end to the other. If the first coil of the slinky is given a single back-and-forth vibration, then we call the observed motion of the disturbance through the slinky a slinky pulse. A pulse is a single disturbance moving through a medium from one location to another location. However, if the first coil of the slinky is continuously and periodically vibrated in a back-and-forth manner, we would observe a repeating disturbance moving within the slinky that endures over some prolonged period of time. The repeating and periodic disturbance that moves through a medium from one location to another is referred to as a wave.

What is alongitudinalwave?

Longitudinal wave: is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction that the wave moves. Suppose that a slinky is stretched out in a horizontal direction across the classroom and that a pulse is introduced into the slinky on the left end by vibrating the first coil left and right.
