18. Waves & Sound / Velocity of Transverse Waves / Problem 9

You set up two wires with different linear mass densities, as shown below. Wire A has a linear mass density of 0.15 kg/m. The linear mass density of wire B is 0.05 kg/m. If two waves are simultaneously sent through the wires and are to arrive simultaneously on the opposite end, calculate the required wire lengths LA and LB.
