The transverse displacement of a string of a linear density \(0.01 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-1}\), clamped at its ends is given by \(Y_{(x, t)}=0.03 \sin \left(\frac{2 \pi x}{3}\right) \cos (60 \pi t)\), where \(x\) and \(y\) are in metres and time \(t\) is in seconds. Tension in the string is

  1. A 9 N
  2. B 36 N
  3. C 162 N
  4. D 81 N
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 81 N

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Transverse displacement \[ y_{(x, t)}=0.03 \sin \left(\frac{2 \pi x}{3}\right) \cos 60 \pi t \text {. } \] This is equation of standing wave. The standard equation of standing wave is \(y=a \sin k x \cos \omega t\) Here, \(\omega=60 \pi, k=2 \pi / 3\) So,…
