Two different types of rope with different properties are fused together to make one long rope. When a wave transfers from the first type of rope to the second type of rope, the wavelength becomes one-fourth of what it was before the transfer. What is true about the speed of the wave?(1 point)
Responses
The speed of the wave becomes one-fourth its original speed after the transfer.
The speed of the wave becomes one-fourth its original speed after the transfer.
The speed of the wave becomes double its original speed after the transfer.
The speed of the wave becomes double its original speed after the transfer.
The speed of the wave becomes four times its original speed after the transfer.
The speed of the wave becomes four times its original speed after the transfer.
The speed of the wave remains the same after the transfer.
The speed of the wave remains the same after the transfer.

The speed becomes one-fourth its original speed after the transfer.
Reason: frequency is unchanged at the boundary, and v = fλ, so if λ → λ/4 then v → v/4.
