A string of mass $m$ and length $l$ hangs from ceiling as shown in the figure. Wave in string moves upward. $v_A$ and $v_B$ are the speeds of wave at $A$ and $B$ respectively. Then $v_B$ is
$\sqrt 3\,v_A$
$v_A$
$<\,v_A$
$\sqrt 2\,v_A$
Speed of a transverse wave on a straight wire (mass $6.0\; \mathrm{g}$, length $60\; \mathrm{cm}$ and area of cross-section $1.0\; \mathrm{mm}^{2}$ ) is $90\; \mathrm{ms}^{-1} .$ If the Young's modulus of wire is $16 \times 10^{11}\; \mathrm{Nm}^{-2},$ the extension of wire over its natural length is
A string of length $L$ and mass $M$ hangs freely from a fixed point. Then the velocity of transverse waves along the string at a distance $x$ from the free end is
Which of the following statements is incorrect during propagation of a plane progressive mechanical wave ?
Figure here shows an incident pulse $P$ reflected from a rigid support. Which one of $A, B, C, D$ represents the reflected pulse correctly
A transverse wave propagating on the string can be described by the equation $y=2 \sin (10 x+300 t)$. where $x$ and $y$ are in metres and $t$ in second. If the vibrating string has linear density of $0.6 \times 10^{-3} \,g / cm$, then the tension in the string is .............. $N$
