A circus performer stretches a tightrope between two towers. He strikes one end of the rope and sends a wave along it toward the other tower. He notes that it takes the wave 0.960 second to reach the opposite tower, 20.0 meter away. If a 1 meter length of the rope has a mass of 0.345 kilogram, compute what the tension in the tightrope.
