Question

Find the velocity of transverse waves on a string of length 7m and mass 100 gm, under tension 900 N. I got this question wrong on my homework. My instructor didnot show us nor explain to us how to do this question. Can someoneplease help me solve this question. Thank you.

Explanation / Answer

        Length, L = 7 m         Mass, m = 100 g                      = 0.1 kg         Tension, T = 900 N         Linear density, =m / L                                  = 0.1 / 7                                  = 0.014 kg/m         Velocity of transversewave, V = ( T / )                                                       = ( 900 / 0.014 )                                                       = 253.55 m/s
