Two wires $A$ and $B$ of lengths in the ratio $1: 2$ and masses in the ratio $2: 1$ are stretched by the same tension. The ratio of the fundamental frequencies of wires $A$ and $B$ is

$A$ steel wire of length $1 \,m$, mass $0.1 \,kg$, and uniform area of cross-section $10^{-6} \,m^2$ is rigidly fixed at both ends without any tension. Its temperature is lowered by $20^{\circ} C$ and transverse waves are set up by plucking the wire at the middle. The frequency of the fundamental mode is ($Y = 200 \,GPa$, $\alpha = 1.21 \times 10^{-5} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$). (in $\,Hz$)

In a sonometer wire,the tension is maintained by suspending a $50.7 \, kg$ mass from the free end of the wire. The suspended mass has a volume of $0.0075 \, m^3$. The fundamental frequency of the wire is $260 \, Hz$. If the suspended mass is completely submerged in water,the fundamental frequency will become .... $Hz$ (take $g = 10 \, ms^{-2}$)

The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire is $n$. If the length and diameter of the wire are doubled while keeping the tension constant,what is the new fundamental frequency?
