A transverse wave travels on a taut steel wire with velocity of V when tension in it is 2.06×104N. When the tension is changed to T , the velocity changed to V/4 . The value  of T is closed to

a
10.2×102N
b
1.2875×103N
c
2.50×104N
d
1×104N

detailed solution

Correct option is B

V = Tμ ∴V ∝T ⇒V1V2=T1T2 ⇒VV4=TT1 ⇒16=TT1 ⇒T1=T16=2.06×10416=0.12875×104==1.2875×10+3N
