The ends of a stretched wire of length $L$ are fixed at $x = 0$ and $x = L.$ In one experiment,the displacement of the wire is ${y_1} = A\sin (\pi x/L)\sin \omega t$ and energy is ${E_1}$,and in another experiment its displacement is ${y_2} = A\sin (2\pi x/L)\sin 2\omega t$ and energy is ${E_2}$. Then

  • A
    ${E_2} = {E_1}$
  • B
    ${E_2} = 2{E_1}$
  • C
    ${E_2} = 4{E_1}$
  • D
    ${E_2} = 16{E_1}$
