$A$ transverse wave travels on a taut steel wire with a velocity of $v$ when the tension in it is $2.06 \times 10^{4} \; N$. When the tension is changed to $T$,the velocity changes to $v/2$. The value of $T$ is close to:

The speed of a wave on a string is $150 \,ms^{-1}$ when the tension is $120 \,N$. The percentage increase in the tension in order to raise the wave speed by $20 \%$ is

$A$ string of mass $2.5\ kg$ is under a tension of $200\ N$. The length of the stretched string is $20.0\ m$. If a transverse jerk is struck at one end of the string,the disturbance will reach the other end in .... $\sec$.

Two strings with circular cross section and made of same material are stretched to have the same amount of tension. $A$ transverse wave is then made to pass through both the strings. The velocity of the wave in the first string having the radius of cross section $R$ is $v_1$,and that in the other string having radius of cross section $R/2$ is $v_2$. Then $\frac{v_2}{v_1} = $

One end of a string is tied to the ceiling of a lift and a load is attached at the bottom end of the string. When the lift is moving upwards with an acceleration of $2.1 \,ms^{-2}$, the speed of the transverse wave at the lower end of the string is $88 \,ms^{-1}$. If the lift moves downwards with an acceleration of $1.9 \,ms^{-2}$, the speed of the transverse wave at the lower end of the string is (take $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$): (in $\,ms^{-1}$)
