The equation of a simple harmonic wave produced in a string under a tension of $0.4 \,N$ is given by $y=4 \sin (3x+60t) \,m$. The mass per unit length of the string is:

$A$ rope of length $L$ and uniform linear density is hanging from the ceiling. $A$ transverse wave pulse,generated close to the free end of the rope,travels upwards through the rope. Select the correct option.

When the length of a tense wire is made half while keeping its mass constant,what will be the effect on the speed of the transverse wave in it?

$A$ string of mass $0.2 \ kg$ is under a tension of $2.5 \ N$. The length of the string is $2 \ m$. $A$ transverse wave starts from one end of the string. The time taken by the wave to reach the other end is: (in $s$)

$A$ block $M$ hangs vertically at the bottom end of a uniform rope of constant mass per unit length. The top end of the rope is attached to a fixed rigid support at $O$. $A$ transverse wave pulse (Pulse $1$) of wavelength $\lambda_0$ is produced at point $O$ on the rope. The pulse takes time $T_{OA}$ to reach point $A$. If the wave pulse of wavelength $\lambda_0$ is produced at point $A$ (Pulse $2$) without disturbing the position of $M$,it takes time $T_{AO}$ to reach point $O$.
