A piano string having a mass per unit length equal to 4.80 ✕ 10−3 kg/m is under a tension of 1,300 N. Find the speed with which a wave travels on this string.

Velocity of wave (V) = 5.2 × 10² m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Per unit length mass (U) = 4.80 × 10⁻³ kg/m

Tension (T)= 1,300 N

Find:

Velocity of wave (V)

Computation:

Velocity of wave (V) = √T / U

Velocity of wave (V) = √1300 / 4.80 × 10⁻³

Velocity of wave (V) = √ 270.84 × 10³

Velocity of wave (V) = 5.2 × 10² m/s

0.19 m/s and 0.45 m/s

its a 5.5 n
