$A$ 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 $Hz$)
