A wire,1.0 m long,with a mass of 90 g,is under tension.A transverse wave is propagated on the wire,for which the frequency is 890 Hz,the wavelength is 0.10 m,and the amplitude is 6.5 mm.The tension in the line,in SI units,is closest to:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The tension in the wire is given by:T = (mass/length) * (wavelength/frequency)^2T = (0.09 kg / 1.0 m) * (0.10 m / 890 Hz)^2T = 710 N
