$A$ wave of frequency $100 \, Hz$ is sent along a string towards a fixed end. When this wave travels back after reflection,a node is formed at a distance of $10 \, cm$ from the fixed end of the string. The speed of the incident (and reflected) wave is .... $m/s$.

$A$ string of length $0.5 \text{ m}$ and mass $10^{-3} \text{ kg}$ is tightly clamped at its ends. The tension in the string is $0.8 \text{ N}$. Identical wave pulses are produced at one end at equal intervals of time $\Delta t$. What is the minimum value of $\Delta t$ which allows constructive interference between successive pulses (in $\text{ s}$)?
