A wire of $10^{-2} kgm^{-1}$ passes over a frictionless light pulley fixed on the top of a frictionless inclined plane which makes an angle of $30^o$ with the horizontal. Masses $m$ and $M$ are tied at two ends of wire such that m rests on the plane and $M$ hangs freely vertically downwards. The entire system is in equilibrium and a transverse wave propagates along the wire with a velocity of $100 ms^{^{-1}}$.

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.

The speed of a transverse wave passing through a string of length $50 \;cm$ and mass $10\,g$ is $60\,ms ^{-1}$. The area of cross-section of the wire is $2.0\,mm ^{2}$ and its Young's modulus is $1.2 \times 10^{11}\,Nm ^{-2}$. The extension of the wire over its natural length due to its tension will be $x \times 10^{-5}\; m$. The value of $x$ is $...$
