A wire of length 400cm is stretched between two fixed points. When plucked, its fundamental frequency is 150Hz. Calculate the speed of the wave produced.
A
250\(ms^{-1}\)
B
625\(ms^{-1}\)
C
1200\(ms^{-1}\)
D
1500\(ms^{-1}\)

Correct Option: C
The fundamental frequency \((f_{0})\) = \(\frac{v}{2l}\)
\(f_{0} = 150Hz; l =400cm = 4m\)
\(150 = \frac{v}{2\times 4}\)
\(v = 150 \times 8 = 1200ms^{-1}\)
