Two wires $W_1$ and $W_2$ have the same radius $r$ and respective densities $\rho_1$ and $\rho_2$ such that $\rho_2 = 4\rho_1$. They are joined together at the point $O$,as shown in the figure. The combination is used as a sonometer wire and kept under tension $T$. The point $O$ is midway between the two bridges. When a stationary wave is set up in the composite wire,the joint is found to be a node. The ratio of the number of antinodes formed in $W_1$ to $W_2$ is

The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire is $n$. If the tension is increased $3$ times,the length is increased $3$ times,and the diameter is increased $2$ times,what will be the new frequency?

$A$ steel wire of length $1.25 \ m$ is stretched between two rigid supports. The tension in the wire produces an elastic strain of $0.14 \%$. The fundamental frequency of the wire is (Density and Young's modulus of steel are $7.7 \times 10^3 \ kg \ m^{-3}$ and $2.2 \times 10^{11} \ N \ m^{-2}$ respectively). (in $Hz$)
