The fundamental frequency of a transverse wave of a stretched string subjected to a tension $T_1$ is $300 \ Hz$. If the length of the string is doubled and subjected to a tension of $T_2$, the fundamental frequency of the transverse wave in the string becomes $100 \ Hz$. Then $T_2: T_1=$ (Linear density of the string is constant)

  • A
    $1: 2$
  • B
    $3: 4$
  • C
    $2: 3$
  • D
    $4: 9$

One insulated conductor from a household extension cord has a mass per unit length of $\mu$. $A$ section of this conductor is held under tension between two clamps. $A$ subsection is located in a magnetic field of magnitude $B$ directed perpendicular to the length of the cord. When the cord carries an $AC$ current of $i$ at a frequency of $f$,it vibrates in resonance in its simplest standing-wave vibration state. Determine the relationship that must be satisfied between the separation $d$ of the clamps and the tension $T$ in the cord.
