A transverse wave described by y = (0 02 m) sin(1 0 m − 1 ) x + (30 s − 1 ) t] propagates on a stretched string having a linear mass density of 1 2 × 10 − 4 kg m − 1 . Find the tension in the string.

The wave is a transverse wave.

So, the speed is going to be,

Here,

ω= 30 s^-1 and k=1 m^-1.

Feeding the values back,

But,

A transverse wave described byy = (002 m) sin(10 m−1) x + (30 s−1)t]propagates on a stretched string having a linear mass density of 12 × 10−4 kg m−1. Find the tension in the string.

A transverse wave described by
y = (002 m) sin(10 m⁻¹) x + (30 s⁻¹)t]

propagates on a stretched string having a linear mass density of 12 × 10⁻⁴ kg m⁻¹. Find the tension in the string.
