If the tension in a wire is made four times,then what will be the change in the speed of the wave propagating in it?

One end of a string is tied to the ceiling of a lift and a load is attached at the bottom end of the string. When the lift is moving upwards with an acceleration of $2.1 \,ms^{-2}$, the speed of the transverse wave at the lower end of the string is $88 \,ms^{-1}$. If the lift moves downwards with an acceleration of $1.9 \,ms^{-2}$, the speed of the transverse wave at the lower end of the string is (take $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$): (in $\,ms^{-1}$)

When the area of cross-section of a stretched wire is halved and tension is doubled,the speed of propagation of transverse waves along it becomes $k$ times the initial speed. Then,$k$ is:
