The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire is $n$. If the length,tension,and diameter of the wire are all tripled,what is the new fundamental frequency?

  • A
    $\frac{n}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • B
    $\frac{n}{2\sqrt{3}}$
  • C
    $n\sqrt{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{n}{3\sqrt{3}}$

$A$ wire of density $9 \times 10^{-3} \,kg\, cm^{-3}$ is stretched between two clamps $1 \,m$ apart. The resulting strain in the wire is $4.9 \times 10^{-4}$. The lowest frequency of the transverse vibrations in the wire is......$Hz$ (Young's modulus of wire $Y = 9 \times 10^{10} \,N m^{-2}$),(to the nearest integer).

Length of a sonometer wire is either $95 \ cm$ or $100 \ cm$. In both the cases,a tuning fork produces $5 \ beats/sec$ with the wire. The frequency of the tuning fork is- (in $Hz$)

Two strings $A$ and $B$ of lengths $L_A = 80 \text{ cm}$ and $L_B = x \text{ cm}$ respectively are used separately in a sonometer. The ratio of their densities $(d_A / d_B)$ is $0.81$. The diameter of $B$ is one-half that of $A$. If the strings have the same tension and fundamental frequency, the value of $x$ is:

Two uniform stretched steel strings $A$ and $B$ are vibrating under the same tension. The first overtone of $A$ is equal to the second overtone of $B$. If the radius of $A$ is twice that of $B$,then the ratio of the lengths of the strings $l_A/l_B$ is:

$A$ string of length $2 \ m$ is fixed at both ends. If this string vibrates in its fourth normal mode with a frequency of $500 \ Hz$,then the waves would travel on it with a velocity of ..... $m/s$.
