To solve the problem, we need to calculate the stress in a tight wire given that the speed of longitudinal waves is 10 times the speed of transverse waves. We will use the relationship between wave speeds, Young's modulus, and stress. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the relationship between wave speeds**: - The speed of transverse waves \( C_1 \) in a wire is given by: \[ C_1 = \sqrt{\frac{T}{m}} = \sqrt{\frac{T}{A \cdot D}} ...
