  • A
    $2: 1$
  • B
    $3: 2$
  • C

$A$ steel wire is used to stretch a spring. An oscillating magnetic field drives the steel wire up and down. $A$ standing wave with three antinodes is created when the spring is stretched by $4.0\, cm$. What stretch of the spring produces a standing wave with two antinodes with the same frequency (in $, cm$)?

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

$A$ uniform string of length $L$ and mass $M$ is fixed at both ends while it is subject to a tension $T$. It can vibrate at frequencies $(v)$ given by the formula (where $n=1, 2, 3, \ldots$):

$A$ 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:

When a sonometer wire vibrates in the third overtone, the number of antinodes and nodes formed on the wire are respectively
