    What is the Speed of a Transverse Wave on a Varying Thickness Wire?

    I think that you are correct. I had my units mixed up. Thank you for the help on this problem, I truly appreciate it.

    What is the Speed of a Transverse Wave on a Varying Thickness Wire?

    Wouldn't r be equal to .001+.0002x (in terms of millimeters) and (1*10^-6) + (2*10^-7)x (in meters)? Since my limits are in meters, wouldn't my integrand need to be in the same units?

    What is the Speed of a Transverse Wave on a Varying Thickness Wire?

    What would the integration look like? Would the limits be from 1mm (.001m) to 3mm (.003m) and the integrand be pi*(r^2)*10m (volume of a cylinder)?

    What is the Speed of a Transverse Wave on a Varying Thickness Wire?

    Homework Statement A wire that is 10 m long and has a uniform density(u) of 7.75 g/cm^3 is pulled to a tension of F=80 N. The wire, however, does not have a uniform thickness; rather, it varies uniformly from an initial radius of 1mm to a radius of 3mm where it is attached to a wall. If you...
