$A$ wire of length $L$ and linear density $m$ is stretched between two rigid supports with tension $T$. It is observed that the wire resonates in the $P^{th}$ harmonic at a frequency of $320 \ Hz$ and resonates again at the next higher frequency of $400 \ Hz$. The value of $p$ is:

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $4$

In a sonometer wire,the tension is maintained by suspending a $50.7 \, kg$ mass from the free end of the wire. The suspended mass has a volume of $0.0075 \, m^3$. The fundamental frequency of the wire is $260 \, Hz$. If the suspended mass is completely submerged in water,the fundamental frequency will become .... $Hz$ (take $g = 10 \, ms^{-2}$)

When a string is divided into three segments of length $l_1, l_2$ and $l_3,$ the fundamental frequencies of these three segments are $v_1, v_2$ and $v_3$ respectively. The original fundamental frequency $(v)$ of the string is

$A$ sonometer wire is in unison with a tuning fork when it is stretched by weight $w$ and the corresponding resonating length is $L_1$. If the weight is reduced to $\frac{w}{4}$,the corresponding resonating length becomes $L_2$. The ratio $\frac{L_1}{L_2}$ is:

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)
