A2.0-m long piano string of mass 10 g is under a tension of 338 n. find the speed with which a wave travels on this string.

In physics lecture, we know that the formula for wave speed on a harmonic series is given as:

v = sqrt ( T / (M/L))

Where,

v = wave velocity in m / s = unknown

T = tension force in Newtons= 338 N

M/L = mass per unit length in kg / m = 0.01 kg / 2 m = 0.005 kg / m

Therefore substituting the given values to the equation will result in:

v = sqrt (338 N / (0.005 kg / m) )

v = sqrt (67,600 m^2 / s^2)

v = 260 m / s

okay i have so many questions. but the big one here is: um wt..f is this mess? ?
