Two uniform stretched strings $A$ and $B$,made of steel,are vibrating under the same tension. If the first overtone of $A$ is equal to the second overtone of $B$ and if the radius of $A$ is twice that of $B$,the ratio of the lengths of the strings is

Three similar wires of frequencies $n_1, n_2$ and $n_3$ are joined to form a single wire. What will be its resulting frequency $n$?

At the poles of the earth,a stretched wire of a given length vibrates in unison with a tuning fork. At the equator of the earth,for the same setting,to produce resonance with the same fork,the vibrating length of the wire

$A$ wire of length $0.4 \,m$ stretched at both ends vibrates $250$ times per second. If the length of the wire is increased by $0.1 \,m$ and the stretching force is reduced to $1/4$ of its original value, then the new frequency is (in $\,Hz$)

The length of the wire shown in the figure between the pulleys is $1.5 \, m$ and its mass is $12.0 \, g$. The frequency of vibration with which the wire vibrates in three loops,forming an antinode at the midpoint of the wire,is: (Given $g = 9.8 \, m/s^2$)
