Problem

14.14 A wire stretched between two rigid supports vibrates in its fundamental mode with a frequency of 45 Hz . The mass of the wire is 3.5×10−2 kg3.5 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~kg} and its linear mass density is 4.0×10−2 kg m−14.0 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-1}. What is (a) the speed of a transverse wave on the string, and (b) the tension in the string?
