Transverse waves propagate at 17 {\rm m/s} on a string whose tension is 15 {\rm N}.

What will be the wave speed if the tension is increased to 50 {\rm N}?

Isn't the first law of strings (the law of tension)

velocity = constant*sqrt TEnsion ?

if so, velocity will increase by a factor of sqrt (50/15)
