A wire of mass  kg per metre passes over a frictionless pulley fixed on the top of an inclined frictionless plane which makes an angle of 30^o with the horizontal. Masses M₁ and M₂ are tied at the two ends of the wire. The mass M₁ rests on the plane and the mass M₂ hangs vertically downwards. The whole system is in equilibrium. Now a transverse wave propagates along the wire with a velocity of 100 m/s. Find the value of masses M₁ and M₂. (g = 9.8 m/s²) 

A copper wire is held at the two ends by rigid supports. At 30^oC, the wire is just taut, with negligible tension. Find the speed of transverse waves in this wire at 10^oC if ,  

A uniform rope of length 12 m and mass 6 kg hangs vertically from a rigid support. A block of mass 2 kg is attached to the free end of the rope. A transverse pulse of wavelength 0.06 m is produced at the lower end of the rope. What is the wavelength of the pulse when it reaches the top of the rope?  

A uniform rope of mass 0.1 kg and length 2.45 m hangs from a ceiling. (a) Find the speed of transverse wave in the rope at a point 0.5 m distant from the lower end, (b) Calculate the time taken by a transverse wave to travel the full length of the rope (g = 9.8 m/s²)

The faintest sound the human ear can detect at a frequency of 1 kHz (for which the ear is most sensitive) corresponds to an intensity of about 10^–12W/m² (the so called threshold of hearing). Determine the pressure amplitude and maximum displacement associated with this sound assuming the density of air = 1.3 kg/m³ and velocity of sound in air = 332m/s.
