We have given, y=0.03sin(450t−9x) Comparing it with standard equation of wave, we get ω= 450k=9 ∴v=kω=9450=50 m/s Velocity of travelling wave on a stretched string is given by v=μT⇒μT=2500 μ= linear mass density ⇒T=2500×5×10−3 ⇒12.5 N
Equation of travelling wave on a stretched string of linear density 5 g/m is y=0.03sin(450t−9x) where distance and time are measured in SI units. The tension in the string is:

A uniform disc of radius $R$ and mass $M$ is free to oscillate about the axis $A$ as shown in the figure. For small oscillations the time period is ______. ($g$ is acceleration due to gravity) 
The velocity of a particle executing simple harmonic motion along $x$-axis is described as $v^2 = 50 - x^2$, where $x$ represents displacement. If the time period of motion is $\dfrac{x}{7}$ s, the value of $x$ is _____.
A spring stretches by $2$ mm when it is loaded with a mass of $200$ g. From equilibrium position the mass is further pulled down by $2$ mm and released. The frequency associated with the system and maximum energy in the spring are __________ Hz and __________ J, respectively. (Take g $= 10$ m/s$^2$)
As shown in the figure, a spring is kept in a stretched position with some extension by holding the masses 1 kg and 0.2 kg with a separation more than spring natural length and are released. Assuming the horizontal surface to be frictionless, the angular frequency (in SI unit) of the system is : $k=150 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}$
