$A$ wire of length $L$,diameter $d$,and density of material $\rho$ is under tension $T$,having a fundamental frequency of vibration $n_A$. Another wire of length $2L$,tension $2T$,density $2\rho$,and diameter $3d$ has a fundamental frequency of vibration $n_B$. The ratio $n_B : n_A$ is

In an experiment to study standing waves,you use a string whose mass per unit length is $\mu = (1.0 \pm 0.1) \times 10^{-4} \ kg/m$. You look at the fundamental mode,whose frequency $f$ is related to the length $L$ and tension $T$ of the string by the equation $L = \frac{1}{2f} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$. You make a plot with $L$ on the $y$-axis and $\sqrt{T}$ on the $x$-axis,and find that the best-fitting line is $y = (8.0 \pm 0.3) \times 10^{-3}x + (0.2 \pm 0.04)$ in $SI$ units. What is the value of the frequency of the wave (including the error)? Express your result in $SI$ units $(Hz)$.

When tension $T$ is applied to a sonometer wire of length $\ell$,it vibrates with the fundamental frequency $n$. Keeping the experimental setup same,when the tension is increased by $8 \ N$,the fundamental frequency becomes three times the earlier fundamental frequency $(n)$. The initial tension applied to the wire in newton was:
