$A$ transverse wave travels on a taut steel wire with a velocity of $v$ when the tension in it is $2.06 \times 10^{4} \; N$. When the tension is changed to $T$,the velocity changes to $v/2$. The value of $T$ is close to:

  • A
    $10.2 \times 10^{2} \; N$
  • B
    $5.15 \times 10^{3} \; N$
  • C
    $2.50 \times 10^{4} \; N$
  • D
    $30.5 \times 10^{4} \; N$
