    A uniform rope of length $L$ and mass $m_1$ hangs vertically from a rigid support. A block of mass $m_2$ is attached to the free end of the rope. A transverse pulse of wavelength $\lambda _1$, is produced at the lower end of the rope. The wave length of the pulse when it reaches the top of the rope is $\lambda _2$. The ratio $\lambda _2\,/\,\lambda _1$ is
