document.write( "    v = ,\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "where  \"T\"  is tension of the string (in Newtons, N)  and  \"d\" is the linear density of the string (in kilograms per meter, kg/m).\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "In this formula, the velocity \"v\" of the transverse wave is in meters per second, m/s.\r\n" );

document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "By substituting the given input values, you get\r\n" );

document.write( "    193 = .\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Square both sides and express  T =   to get the value of  T  equal to  85.67 Newtons.\r\n" );
