A wave moves with speed `300 m//s` on a wire which is under a tension of `500 N`. Find how much tension must be changed to increase the speed to `312 m//s`?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem step by step, we will use the relationship between wave speed, tension, and linear mass density of the wire. ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between wave speed and tension The speed of a wave on a string or wire is given by the formula: \[ V = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}} \] where: ...
