$A$ uniform wire of length $L$,diameter $D$,and density $\rho$ is stretched under a tension $T$. The correct relation between its fundamental frequency $f$,the length $L$,and the diameter $D$ is:

  • A
    $f \propto \frac{1}{L D}$
  • B
    $f \propto \frac{1}{L \sqrt{D}}$
  • C
    $f \propto \frac{1}{D^{2}}$
  • D
    $f \propto \frac{1}{L D^{2}}$

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:

In order to double the frequency of the fundamental note emitted by a stretched string,the length is reduced to $\frac{3}{4}$ of the original length and the tension is changed. The factor by which the tension is to be changed is:

$A$ uniform string of length $L$ and mass $M$ is fixed at both ends while it is subject to a tension $T$. It can vibrate at frequencies $(v)$ given by the formula (where $n=1, 2, 3, \ldots$):

$A$ uniform string is vibrating with a fundamental frequency '$n$'. If the radius and length of the string are both doubled while keeping the tension constant,then the new frequency of vibration is:

The equation of vibration of a stretched string fixed at both ends and vibrating in $5^{\text{th}}$ harmonic is $Y = 3 \sin(0.4x) \cos(200\pi t)$, where '$x$' and '$Y$' are in $cm$ and '$t$' is in seconds. The length of the string is: (in $\pi \text{ cm}$)
