$A$ steel wire of length $1.25 \ m$ is stretched between two rigid supports. The tension in the wire produces an elastic strain of $0.14 \%$. The fundamental frequency of the wire is (Density and Young's modulus of steel are $7.7 \times 10^3 \ kg \ m^{-3}$ and $2.2 \times 10^{11} \ N \ m^{-2}$ respectively). (in $Hz$)

Two uniform stretched steel strings $A$ and $B$ are vibrating under the same tension. The first overtone of $A$ is equal to the second overtone of $B$. If the radius of $A$ is twice that of $B$,then the ratio of the lengths of the strings $l_A/l_B$ is:

$A$ uniform wire of length $L$,diameter $D$,and density $\rho$ is stretched by a tension $T$. The frequency $f$ of the wire is proportional to:

In a sonometer experiment,a string of length $L$ under tension vibrates in its second overtone between two bridges. The amplitude of vibration is maximum at:

$n$ waves are produced on a string in $1 \ s$. When the radius of the string is doubled,keeping the tension the same,the number of waves produced in $1 \ s$ for the same harmonic will be

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
