Use v = √(T/μ) for the speed of a transverse wave on a string.
Use - speed of a transverse wave on a string to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.
This matters because - speed of a transverse wave on a string determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.
Example: apply - speed of a transverse wave on a string to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.
Boundary: - Speed of a transverse wave on a string is not a universal recommendation. Check the syllabus scope, assumptions, units and the limits of the evidence before generalising.
