Q60 / 60 · NEST (NISER) 2019 (Session 2) · Physics

A rope of length $L$ and uniform linear density $\mu$ is hanging from the ceiling. A transverse wave pulse, generated close to the free end of the rope, travels upwards through the rope. Then,

  • Correct answer
    A
    the tension will vary across the length of the rope.
  • Correct answer
    B
    the velocity of the wave will be maximum close to the ceiling.
  • C
    the wavelength of the wave will be 4 L .
  • Correct answer
    D
    the time taken by the wave to travel the length of the rope is $2 \sqrt{L / g}$.

Hence, the correct answer is options: 'A', 'B', 'D'.
