A steel wire 70cm long has a mass of 7.0g. If the wire is under a tension of 100N, what is the speed of transverse waves in the wire?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the speed of transverse waves in the steel wire, we can use the formula for the speed of a wave on a string or wire: \[ v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}} \] Where: - \( v \) is the speed of the wave, ...
