A wave stretched between two rigid supports vibrate in its fundamental mode with a frequency of 45 Hz. The mass of wire is ` 3.5 xx 10^(-2) kg` and its linear mass density is `4.0 xx 10^(-2) kg m^(-1)`. What is (a) the speed of transverse wave on the string, and (b) the tension in the string?

Explanation

(a) `79 ms^(-1)` (b) `248N`
