$A$ steel wire of length $81 \text{ cm}$ has a mass of $5 \times 10^{-3} \text{ kg}$. If the wire is under a tension of $50 \text{ N}$, then the speed of transverse waves on the wire is (in $\text{ m s}^{-1}$)

$A$ copper wire is held at the two ends by rigid supports. At $50^{\circ} C$ the wire is just taut,with negligible tension. If $Y=1.2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$,$\alpha=1.6 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C$,and $\rho=9.2 \times 10^3 \, kg/m^3$,then the speed of transverse waves in this wire at $30^{\circ} C$ is .......... $m/s$.
