Ans: Time <span>taken by a pulse to travel from one support to the other = 0.348s

Explanation:
First you need to find out the speed of the wave.
Since
Speed = v =
Where
T = Tension in the cord = 150N
μ = Mass per unit length = mass/Length = 0.65/28 = 0.0232 kg/m
So
v =
= 80.41 m/s
Now the time-taken by the wave = t = Length/speed = 28/80.41=0.348s
