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:

  • A
    $33$
  • B
    $102$
  • C
    $144$
  • D
    $130$

If the tension and diameter of a sonometer wire of fundamental frequency $n$ are doubled and density is halved,then its fundamental frequency will become

When tension $T$ is applied to a sonometer wire of length $\ell$,it vibrates with the fundamental frequency $n$. Keeping the experimental setup same,when the tension is increased by $8 \ N$,the fundamental frequency becomes three times the earlier fundamental frequency $(n)$. The initial tension applied to the wire in newton was:

$A$ sonometer wire is vibrating in the third overtone. There are:
