What will be the speed of the transverse wave in a string if the tension in the string remains constant and the diameter is doubled a) remains constant b) becomes half c) becomes double d) becomes four times

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Goodness, I don't know for sure.... What's your guess?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think I have an idea. Still, what's your answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

half

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if \[v_{wave} = \sqrt{ \frac{F}{\mu}} \] \[ \mu \ \textrm{is "linear density," which would increase with an increased diameter}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yah!! winner ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how density related to Diameter Maff :)
