The frequency of the first harmonic of a string stretched between two points is $100 \, Hz$. The frequency of the third overtone is ... $Hz$.

$A$ wire stretched between two rigid supports vibrates in its fundamental mode with a frequency of $45 \;Hz$. The mass of the wire is $3.5 \times 10^{-2} \;kg$ and its linear mass density is $4.0 \times 10^{-2} \;kg \;m^{-1}$. What is
$(a)$ the speed of a transverse wave on the string,and
$(b)$ the tension in the string?

Two wires of the same material are vibrating under the same tension. If the first overtone of the first wire is equal to the second overtone of the second wire and the radius of the first wire is twice the radius of the second,then the ratio of the length of the first wire to the second wire is:

$A$ steel wire of length $1 \ m$ and mass $0.1 \ kg$ and having a uniform cross-sectional area of $10^{-6} \ m^2$ is rigidly fixed at both ends. The temperature of the wire is lowered by $20^{\circ} C$. If the wire is vibrating in its fundamental mode,find the frequency (in $Hz$).
