$A$ 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 $\text{ m s}^{-1}$)

$A$ transverse wave is passing through a string as shown in the figure. The mass density of the string is $1 \ kg/m^3$ and the cross-sectional area of the string is $0.01 \ m^2$. The equation of the wave in the string is $y = 2 \sin(20t - 10x)$. The hanging mass is (in $kg$):-

When the area of cross-section of a stretched wire is halved and tension is doubled,the speed of propagation of transverse waves along it becomes $k$ times the initial speed. Then,$k$ is:

$A$ uniform rope of length $L$ and mass $m_1$ hangs vertically from a rigid support. $A$ block of mass $m_2$ is attached to the free end of the rope. $A$ transverse pulse of wavelength $\lambda_1$ is produced at the lower end of the rope. The wavelength of the pulse when it reaches the top of the rope is $\lambda_2$. The ratio $\lambda_2 / \lambda_1$ is:

$A$ uniform metal wire has length $L$,mass $M$,and cross-sectional area $A$. It is under tension $T$,and $V$ is the speed of a transverse wave along the wire. The density of the wire is:
