The speed of transverse waves produced in a copper wire is 40 m/s. Calculate the tension developed in the wire if diameter of wire is 1.8 mm and density of wire is `8.9 xx 10^(3) kg m^(-3)`.

Explanation

To calculate the tension developed in a copper wire when the speed of transverse waves is given, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Understand the relationship between speed, tension, and mass per unit length
The speed of a wave in a string or wire is given by the formula:
\[ v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}} \]
where:
