The wave speed on a string under tension is 200 m/s. What is the speed if the tension is doubled?

Respuesta :

Answer:

v = 282.84 m / s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave in a wire is given by the equation

       .v = √ T /ρ

Where v is the speed of the wave, T the tension in the wire and ρ the density of the wire

 If the tension is doubled

        T = 2T₀

        v = √ (2T₀ / ρ)

        v = √2   √ T₀ / ρ

        v = √2  v₀

calculate

       v = √2  200

       v = 282.84 m / s

In physics, mathematics, and related fields, a wave is a propagating dynamic disturbance of one or more quantities, sometimes as described by a wave equation.

The wave depends on the following:-

  • Wavelength
  • Frequency
  • Medium

According to the question, the speed of the tension is as follows

The formula we will use is:-

     [tex]v= \sqrt{\frac{T}{p}}[/tex]

Where v is the speed of the wave, T is the tension in the wire, and ρ is the density of the wire.

when tension is doubled.

T = 2T₀

[tex]v = \sqrt√\frac{2T₀}{ρ}[/tex]

   

[tex]v = \sqrt2\frac{T₀}{ρ}[/tex]

      [tex]v = \frac{2}{v₀}[/tex]

After calculating, the value of v get,

 [tex]v = \sqrt2*200[/tex]

The value v = 282.84 m / s
