(i)
Find the velocity of the pulse.
(ii) What would be the wavelength of the wave on the string if its frequency is 200 Hz?

2. A sonar device on a submarine sends out a signal and receives an echo 5 s later. Calculate the speed of sound in water, if the distance of the object from the submarine is 3625 m.
