the linear density of a wire under tension t varies linearly from `mu_(1)` to `mu_(20`.Calculate the time that a pulse would need to pass one to the other.The length of the wire is l

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`2l((mu_(2)^(3//2)-mu_(1)^(3//2)))/(3(mu_(2)-mu_(1))sqrt(T))`
