Q.

The drawing shows a frictionless incline and pulley. The two blocks are connected by a wire (mass per unit length, μ=25 g/m) and remain stationary. A transverse wave on the wire has a speed of  60m/s relative to it. Neglect the weight of the wire relative to the tension in the wire. If the mass  m2 be increased by 1%, the speed (in m/s) of the transverse wave relative to string will be

Detailed Solution

  Initially, m2g=T1T=m1gsin302from 1 & 2m2g=m12g

m1=2m2
v=Tμ

dvv=12dTT
where  is velocity of the wave, T is tension and μ is the mass for unit length of the string.
Now, after increasing value of m2 , tension in string also increases.

New mass of 2nd block : m2'=1.01m2

Let say new value of tension is T'

Applying Newton’s second law for both blocks, 
m2'gT'=m2'a

and

T'-m1gsin300=m1a

After solving, 

T'=3m1m2'g2m1+m2'

T'=32m21.01m2g22m2+1.01m2=6.066.02m2g        m1=2m2

TT=T'-TT=6.066.02-1=0.046.02

Now, 
dvv=12dTT=12×0.046.02

dv60=12×0.046.02

dv=60×12×0.046.02

dv=0.2
Therefore, the correct answer is  60.20
