the resulting wave speed=62.7 m/s
Explanation:
The speed of a wave is given by
v=[tex] \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } [/tex]
T= tension, v= velocity= 58 m/s
when the tension is increased by 17%, new tension= 1.17 T
[tex] V'=\sqrt{\frac{1.17T}{\mu}} [/tex]
[tex] V'=1.082 \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}} [/tex]
V'=1.082 V
V'=1.082 (58)
V'=62.7 m/s
