3. Suppose the tension in a string consisting of two joined pieces of unequal thickness is constant. V2+V2 a. Show that the transmission amplitude ratio is given by t = V1+V2 b. Find v₂ in the new medium (in terms of v₁) so that the transmitted wave will have half the size of the incident part. c. By what percentage should the speed of the wave increase at the interface if the transmitted part is to have one and a half times the size of the incident part? d. Show that no useful solutions for v₂ (in terms of v₁) can be found when t≥ 2. What does this mean physically for transmitted waves in general?
