$Assertion :$ Two waves moving in a uniform string having uniform tension cannot have different velocities.
$Reason :$ Elastic and inertial properties of string are same for all waves in same string. Moreover speed of wave in a string depends on its elastic and inertial properties only.

One insulated conductor from a household extension cord has a mass per unit length of $μ.$ A section of this conductor is held under tension between two clamps. A subsection is located in a magnetic field of magnitude $B$ directed perpendicular to the length of the cord. When the cord carries an $AC$ current of $"i"$ at a frequency of $f,$ it vibrates in resonance in its simplest standing-wave vibration state. Determine the relationship that must be satisfied between the separation $d$ of the clamps and the tension $T$ in the cord.

One end of a long string of linear mass density $8.0 \times 10^{-3}\;kg m ^{-1}$ is connected to an electrically driven tuning fork of frequency $256\; Hz$. The other end passes over a pulley and is tied to a pan containing a mass of $90 \;kg$. The pulley end absorbs all the incoming energy so that reflected waves at this end have negligible amplitude. At $t=0,$ the left end (fork end) of the string $x=0$ has zero transverse displacement $(y=0)$ and is moving along positive $y$ -direction. The amplitude of the wave is $5.0\; cm .$ Write down the transverse displacement $y$ as function of $x$ and $t$ that describes the wave on the string.
