$A$ sonometer wire is in unison with a tuning fork of frequency '$n$' when it is stretched by a weight of specific gravity '$d$'. When the weight is completely immersed in water,'$x$' beats are produced per second,then

  • A
    $\frac{n}{n-x}=\frac{d}{d-1}$
  • B
    $\frac{n}{n-x}=\sqrt{\frac{d}{d-1}}$
  • C
    $\frac{n-x}{n}=\frac{d-1}{d}$
  • D
    $\frac{n-x}{n}=\sqrt{\frac{d}{d-1}}$

$A$ sonometer wire of length $25 \,cm$ vibrates in unison with a tuning fork. When its length is decreased by $1 \,cm$, $6$ beats are heard per second. What is the frequency of the tuning fork (in $\,Hz$)?

The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire of length $l$ is $n_0$. $A$ bridge is now introduced at a distance of $\Delta l$ (where $\Delta l \ll l$) from the center of the wire. The lengths of wire on the two sides of the bridge are now vibrated in their fundamental modes. Then,the beat frequency is nearly

If the length of a stretched string is reduced by $40 \%$ and the tension is increased by $44 \%$,then the ratio of the final to the initial frequencies of the stretched string is:

$A$ steel wire of length $1 \,m$, mass $0.1 \,kg$, and uniform area of cross-section $10^{-6} \,m^2$ is rigidly fixed at both ends without any tension. Its temperature is lowered by $20^{\circ} C$ and transverse waves are set up by plucking the wire at the middle. The frequency of the fundamental mode is ($Y = 200 \,GPa$, $\alpha = 1.21 \times 10^{-5} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$). (in $\,Hz$)
