$A$ steel wire of length $1 \ m$ and mass $0.1 \ kg$ and having a uniform cross-sectional area of $10^{-6} \ m^2$ is rigidly fixed at both ends. The temperature of the wire is lowered by $20^{\circ} C$. If the wire is vibrating in its fundamental mode,find the frequency (in $Hz$).
$(Y_{\text{steel}} = 2 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^2, \alpha_{\text{steel}} = 1.21 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C)$
