The frequency of a sonometer wire is $100 \ Hz$. When the weights producing the tension are completely immersed in water,the frequency becomes $80 \ Hz$,and on immersing the weights in a certain liquid,the frequency becomes $60 \ Hz$. The specific gravity of the liquid is:

  • A
    $1.42$
  • B
    $1.77$
  • C
    $1.82$
  • D

$A$ uniform string resonates with a tuning fork at a maximum tension of $32 \,N$. If it is divided into two segments by placing a wedge at a distance one-fourth of the length from one end,then to resonate with the same frequency,the maximum value of tension for the string will be ........... $N$.

$A$ string $2.0\, m$ long and fixed at its ends is driven by a $240\, Hz$ vibrator. The string vibrates in its third harmonic mode. The speed of the wave and its fundamental frequency are:

If ${n_1}, {n_2}, {n_3}, \dots$ are the frequencies of segments of a stretched string,the frequency $n$ of the string is given by

The fundamental frequency of a transverse wave of a stretched string subjected to a tension $T_1$ is $300 \ Hz$. If the length of the string is doubled and subjected to a tension of $T_2$, the fundamental frequency of the transverse wave in the string becomes $100 \ Hz$. Then $T_2: T_1=$ (Linear density of the string is constant)

$A$ string is divided into three segments such that the segments possess fundamental frequencies in the ratio $1: 2: 3$. Then,the lengths of the segments are in the ratio:
