Two Cu wires of radii `R_(1)` and `R_(2)` are such that `(R_(1) gt R_(2))` . Then which of the following is true ?A. Transverse wave travels faster in thicker wireB. Transverse wave travels faster in thinner wireC. Travels with the same speed in both the wiresD. Does not travel

Answer» Correct Answer - B
The velocity of a transverse wave
`v = sqrt((T)/(rho A))`
` v prop (1)/(sqrtA)`
or ` v prop (1)/(R)`
Because the velocity of wire depend on the radius . So transverse wave travels faster in thinner wire.
