Randall D. Knight β Traveling Waves: Problem 47
String 1 in FIGURE P16.47 has linear density \(2.0 \text{ g/m}\) and string 2 has linear density \(4.0 \text{ g/m}\). A student sends pulses in both directions by quickly pulling up on the knot, then releasing it. What should the string lengths \(L_1\) and \(L_2\) be if the pulses are to reach the ends of the strings simultaneously? [The figure indicates the total length between the ends is 4.0 m].
