Transverse waves propagate at 43.2 m/s in a string that is subjected to a tension of 60.5 N. If the string is 15.9 m long, what is its mass?
A) 0.515 kg
B) 0.216 kg
C) 0.366 kg
D) 0.597 kg

The correct answer is A.The mass of the string can be calculated using the formula:mass = (tension * length) / (velocity^2)Substituting the given values into the formula, we get:mass = (60.5 N * 15.9 m) / (43.2 m/s)^2 = 0.515 kg
