Question

Problem Statement: In this experiment, you generated pulses such that each pulse lasted for about 500.0 ns and the pulses repeated every 10.0 us. Assume that the pulses are travelling at 2.0 * 10° m/s down a very long cable. 50% Part (a) How long in meters is cach 500.0 ns pulse, ie. how much distance was there between the leading cdge of a 500.0 ns pulse and the trailing edge of the pulse?

Explanation / Answer

a. given pulse duration, dt= 500 ns = 500*10^-9 s

pulse speed, v = 2*10^8 m/s

hence

pulse width = v*dt = 500*10^-9*2*10^8 = 1000*10^-1 = 100 m (using speed = distance/time)
