$A$ 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:

  • A
    $\frac{A T}{V^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{T}{A^2 V}$
  • C
    $\frac{T}{V^2 A}$
  • D
    $\frac{V^2}{A^2 T}$

Two strings $(A, B)$ having linear densities $\mu_{A} = 2 \times 10^{-4} \ kg/m$ and $\mu_{B} = 4 \times 10^{-4} \ kg/m$ and lengths $L_{A} = 2.5 \ m$ and $L_{B} = 1.5 \ m$ respectively are joined. Free ends of $A$ and $B$ are tied to two rigid supports $C$ and $D$,respectively,creating a tension of $500 \ N$ in the wire. Two identical pulses,sent from $C$ and $D$ ends,take time $t_1$ and $t_2$,respectively,to reach the joint. The ratio $t_1 / t_2$ is:

The extension in a string obeying Hooke's law is $x$. The speed of sound in the stretched string is $v$. If the extension in the string is increased to $1.5x$,the speed of sound will be (in $,v$)

The equation of a transverse wave propagating on a stretched string is given by $y = 3 \sin (4x + 200t)$,where $x$ and $y$ are in metres and the time $t$ is in seconds. If the tension applied to the string is $500 \ N$,the linear density of the string is: (in $kg \ m^{-1}$)
