Wave Mechanics Question 647
Question: Two strings A and B, made of same material, are stretched by same tension. The radius of string A is double of radius of B. A transverse wave travels on A with speed $ V _{A} $ and on B with speed Vo. The ratio $ V _{A}/V _{B} $ is
Options:
A) 1/2
B) 2
C) 1/4
D) 4
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
[a] $ \frac{V _{A}}{V _{B}}=\frac{D _{B}}{D _{A}}=\frac{1}{2} $
