Two strings $(A, B)$ having linear densities $\mu_{A} = 2 \times 10^{-4} \ kg/m$ and $\mu_{B} = 4 \times 10^{-4} \ kg/m$ and lengths $L_{A} = 2.5 \ m$ and $L_{B} = 1.5 \ m$ respectively are joined. Free ends of $A$ and $B$ are tied to two rigid supports $C$ and $D$,respectively,creating a tension of $500 \ N$ in the wire. Two identical pulses,sent from $C$ and $D$ ends,take time $t_1$ and $t_2$,respectively,to reach the joint. The ratio $t_1 / t_2$ is:
