A500-g metal wire has a length of 50 cm and is under tension of 80 n. (a) what is the speed of a transverse wave in the wire? (b) if the wire is cut in half, what will be the speed of the wave?

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the metal wire, m = 500 g = 0.5 kg

Tension in the wire, T = 80 N

Length of wire, l = 50 cm = 0.5 m

(a) The speed of the transverse wave is given by :

M is the mass per unit length or M = m/l

v = 8.94 m/s

(b) If the wire is cut in half, so l = l/2

v = 6.32 m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

b.

hope this : )

current and voltage can both be different in different parts of a circuit so it matters where you place the ammeter and voltmete
