Two vibrating strings of the same material but lengths $L$ and $2L$ have radii $2r$ and $r$ respectively. They are stretched under the same tension. Both the strings vibrate in their fundamental modes,the one of length $L$ with frequency $f_1$ and the other with frequency $f_2$. The ratio $\frac{f_1}{f_2}$ is given by

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $4$
  • C
    $8$
  • D

$A$ sonometer wire $49 \ cm$ long is in unison with a tuning fork of frequency '$n$'. If the length of the wire is decreased by $1 \ cm$ and it is vibrated with the same tuning fork,$6$ beats are heard per second. The value of '$n$' is (in $Hz$)

$A$ sonometer wire resonates with a given tuning fork,forming a standing wave with $5$ antinodes between two bridges when a mass of $9 \ kg$ is suspended from the wire. When a mass '$m$' is suspended from the wire,with the same tuning fork and the same length between the two bridges,$3$ antinodes are formed. The value of mass '$m$' is: (in $kg$)

$A$ 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.
