Worksheet 1 Example 3 - Lincoln Chu Mesina

Calculate the speed of the wave pulse :

a) Velocity = Wavelength / Period
= 16/0.35
= 45.7cm (3 s.f. )

Is it possible to change the speed of the wave pulse ( of the same width ) ?

The speed of the wave pulse cannot be changed regardless of adjusting the amplitude, the damping and the tension.
