The mass per unit length of a uniform wire is $0.135\, g / cm$. A transverse wave of the form $y =-0.21 \sin ( x +30 t )$ is produced in it, where $x$ is in meter and $t$ is in second. Then, the expected value of tension in the wire is $x \times 10^{-2} N$. Value of $x$ is . (Round-off to the nearest integer)

$\mu=0.135 gm / cm =0.0135 kg / m$

$y =-0.21 \sin ( x +30 t )$

$(x$ in meter $\&$ $t$ in sec)

$v =\frac{\omega}{ k }=\frac{30}{1}=30 m / s$

$v =\sqrt{\frac{ T }{\mu}} \Rightarrow T = v ^{2} \mu=(30)^{2}(0.0135)$

$=12.15$

$= x \times 10^{-2} N$

$\Rightarrow x =1215$

    A resonance tube is old and has jagged end. It is still used in the laboratory to determine velocity of sound in air. A tuning fork of frequency $512\,Hz$ produces first resonance when the tube is filled with water to a mark $11\,cm$ below a reference mark, near the open end of the tube. The experiment is repeated with another fork of frequency $256\,Hz$ which produces first resonance when water reaches a mark $27\,cm$ below the reference mark. The velocity of sound in air, obtained in the experiment, is close to .... $ms^{-1}$
