A guitar string with mass density μ = 2.1 * 10-4 kg/m is L = 0.95 m long on the guitar. The string is tuned by adjusting the tension to T = 82.6 N.

With what speed do waves on the string travel?

    Answer: The waves travels in the string with a speed of 627m/s

    Explanation: Using the equation of wave velocity

    V = √T/μ

    Where V is the wave speed

    T is the tension of the string = 82.6N

    μ is the linear density = 2.1 * 10-4 kg/m

    V = √ (82.6/2.1 * 10-4 kg)

    V = 627m/s

    Therefore the wave speed travels in the string with a speed of 627m/s
