Question

Assuming that the coupling constant is 1, using dimensional analysis, find the possible formula that relates the time t in transmitting a disturbance on a string, knowing that it depends on:
of the Force F with which it is stretched, of the mass m of the rope,
and the length L of the string.
Data:
[F] = M L T -2

[v] = L T -1
