Vedclass · Answer

(D) The tension $T$ in the wire when the lift is accelerating upwards is given by $T = m(g + a)$.Given $m = 9 \, kg$, $g = 10 \, ms^{-2}$, and $a = 2 \, ms^{-2}$, we have $T = 9(10 + 2) = 9 	imes 12 = 108 \, N$.The speed of a transverse wave on a wire is given by $v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$, where $\mu$ is the linear mass density.We know $\mu = ho A$, where $ho$ is the density of the material and $A$ is the cross-sectional area.Given $v = 120 \, ms^{-1}$ and $A = 1 \, mm^2 = 10^{-6} \, m^2$, we have $v^2 = \frac{T}{ho A}$.Rearranging for $ho$, we get $ho = \frac{T}{v^2 A} = \frac{108}{(120)^2 	imes 10^{-6}} = \frac{108}{14400 	imes 10^{-6}} = \frac{108}{0.0144} = 7500 \, kg \, m^{-3}$.Converting to $g \, cm^{-3}$, $ho = 7500 	imes 10^{-3} \, g \, cm^{-3} = 7.5 \, g \, cm^{-3}$.Thus, the correct option is $D$.

$A$ transverse wave is travelling on a string with velocity $V$. The extension in the string is $x$. If the string is extended by $50 \%$,the speed of the wave along the string will be nearly (Hooke's law is obeyed).

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 $kg \ m^{-1}$)

$A$ string of $7 \; m$ length has a mass of $0.035 \; kg$. If the tension in the string is $60.5 \; N$,then the speed of a wave on the string is .... $m/s$.

$A$ string of length $L$ is stretched by $\frac{L}{20}$ and the speed of transverse waves along it is $v$. The speed of the wave when it is stretched by $\frac{L}{10}$ will be (assume that Hooke's law is applicable).

If the tension in a wire is made four times,then what will be the change in the speed of the wave propagating in it?
