$A$ copper wire is held at the two ends by rigid supports. At $50^{\circ} C$ the wire is just taut,with negligible tension. If $Y=1.2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$,$\alpha=1.6 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C$,and $\rho=9.2 \times 10^3 \, kg/m^3$,then the speed of transverse waves in this wire at $30^{\circ} C$ is .......... $m/s$.

  • A
    $64.6$
  • B
    $16.2$
  • C
    $23.2$
  • D
    $32.2$
