  • B
    Plucked at $l/4$ and touched at $3l/4$
  • C
    Plucked at $l/2$ and touched at $l/4$

$A$ sonometer wire is vibrating in the third overtone. There are:

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.
