A traveling wave on a taut string with a tension force T is given by the wave function y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(4Ttx+100t) where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. The linear mass density of the string is u = 0.2 kg/m. If the tension is multiplied by a factor of four, while keeping the same amplitude, same wavelength, and same linear mass density, then the new kinetic energy associated with one wavelength on the string is 20 J 40 J 10 J 5 J
