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 $...$

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.
Which of the following statements is incorrect during propagation of a plane progressive mechanical wave ?
$Assertion :$ 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.
Spacing between two successive nodes in a standing wave on a string is $x$ . If frequency of the standing wave is kept unchanged but tension in the string is doubled, then new spacing between successive nodes will become
A wire of density $9 \times 10^{-3} \,kg\, cm ^{-3}$ is stretched between two clamps $1\, m$ apart. The resulting strain in the wire is $4.9 \times 10^{-4}$. The lowest frequency of the transverse vibrations in the wire is......$HZ$
