Consider a string of total length l, made up of three segments of equal length. the mass per unit length of the first segment is μ, that of the second is 2μ, and that of the third μ/4. the third segment is tied to a wall, and the string is stretched by a force of magnitude ts applied to the first segment; ts is much greater than the total weight of the string. how long will it take a transverse wave to propagate from one end of the string to the other? express the time t in terms of l, μ, and ts.

Thomas his older brothers, who own a junk yard, on the weekends to earn extra money. he likes to them push broken-down cars to the back of the junk yard because it makes him feel strong. last saturday, they pushed three cars with different weights, and he noticed he used different amounts of force for each one. the cars were the following weights: white car: 2,700 kg red car: 1,500 kg blue car: 2,100 kg think about how much force is needed to move each car. which correctly lists the cars in order from the most to least amount of force needed to move them? a) white, blue, red b) blue, red, white c) red, white, blue d) white, red, blue
