... Title Investigating the speed of pulses along a strectched spring Objective This experiment is to measure the speed of pulses along a stretched spring and compare it with the thearetical value. Apparatus Long spring x 1 Stop-watch x 1 Newton balance(scale 0-10N) x 1 Slinky spring x 1 Metre rule or measuring tape x 1 Compression balance(scale 0-2kg) x 1 Theory A wave, which can transfer energy from one point to another, consists of a disturbance moving from a source to sorrounding places. There are two types of progressive wave: transverse wave and longitudinal wave. The direction associated with the disturbance is at right angles to the direction of travel by the transverse wave. The disturbance is in the same direction as that of the longitudinal wave. The pulses of this two type of waves can be sent along a slinky spring. In this experiment, both the transverse and longitudinal pulses are generated bt\y the hand, and the speed of the transvers pulses
