Yeah, it's every state. Atoms need a certain quanta of energy to jump to each state of energy, and therefore change state depending on how much energy is absorbed and/or released. This applies to all states of matter.
Answer:
t = 0.657 s
Explanation:
First, let's use the appropiate equations to solve this:
V = √T/u
This expression gives us a relation between speed of a disturbance and the properties of the material, in this case, the rope.
Where:
V: Speed of the disturbance
T: Tension of the rope
u: linear density of the rope.
The density of the rope can be calculated using the following expression:
u = M/L
Where:
M: mass of the rope
L: Length of the rope.
We already have the mass and length, which is the distance of the rope with the supports. Replacing the data we have:
u = 2.31 / 10.4 = 0.222 kg/m
Now, replacing in the first equation:
V = √55.7/0.222 = √250.9
V = 15.84 m/s
Finally the time can be calculated with the following expression:
V = L/t ----> t = L/V
Replacing:
t = 10.4 / 15.84
t = 0.657 s
