A piano string of density 0.0050 kg/m is under a tension of 1,350 N. Find the velocity with which a wave travels on the string.

Sagot :

Answer:

519.62 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

v = √(T/m').............. Equation 1

Where v = velocity of the wave, T = Tension on the string, m' = mass per unit length of the string

From the question,

Given: T = 1350 N, m' = 0.005 kg/m

Substitute these values into equation 1

v = √(1350/0.005)

v = √(270000)

v = 519.62 m/s
