$A$ wire of linear mass density $\mu = 9.8 \times 10^{-3} \, kg \, m^{-1}$ passes over a frictionless light pulley fixed on the top of a frictionless inclined plane which makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. Masses $m$ and $M$ are tied at the two ends of the wire such that $m$ rests on the plane and $M$ hangs freely vertically downwards. The entire system is in equilibrium and a transverse wave propagates along the wire with a velocity of $100 \, m \, s^{-1}$. Choose the correct option for $m$ in $kg$.
