Apparatus and Materials + Retort stand, boss and clamp + Mass hanger plus 7 masses (100 g each) + Metre rule + Amarked rubber band [—— Upper mark Retort stand, I} b—wiath boss and clamp [—}-Lower mark Metre rule as Figure 1. Setup of apparatus Procedure 1, Hang the rubber band from the clamp as shown in Figure | (a) and attach the mass hanger to the lower end of the rubber band. 2. Measure the distance (5) between the two marks on the rubber band as shown in Figure 1 (b) and record this value in Table 1 (NB. This is the value of S when m= 0 and F=0) 3. Gently, add a 100 g mass to the hanger and record the distance between the marks. (N.B. Do not drop the mass onto the hanger.) 4. Repeat Step 3 by adding a 100 g mass each time, until the total mass is 700 g. 5. Calculate the stretching force (F) by using the equation F - m (kg) * ¢ (kg), where g= 10 Nkg'!. Record the value of F in Table 1. Calculate the increase in length or the extension (x /em) of the rubber band by subtracting the initial scale reading from each of the loaded readings. Record these values in Table | (in the extension of the rubber band column).

Onafield trip, a group of students noticed that, at a particular place, they could hear echoes clearly. The teacher told them the echoes were formed when sound waves reflected off wall. She asked them to plan and design an experiment to estimate the speed of sound given that the distance to the wall is known.
