A string is producing transverse vibration whose equation is $y = 0.021\;\sin (x + 30t)$, Where $x$ and $y$ are in meters and $t$ is in seconds. If the linear density of the string is $1.3 \times {10^{ - 4}}\,kg/m,$ then the tension in the string in $N$ will be

A

$10$

B

$0.5$

C

$1$

D

$0.12$

Solution

(d) $y = 0.021\sin (x + 30t)$==> $v = \frac{\omega }{k} = \frac{{30}}{1} = 30\,m/s$. 

Using, $v = \sqrt {\frac{T}{m}} \Rightarrow 30 = \sqrt {\frac{T}{{1.3 \times {{10}^{ – 4}}}}} \Rightarrow T = 0.117\,N$
