$A$ violin emits sound waves of frequency $n_1$ under tension $T$. When tension is increased by $44\%$,keeping the length and mass per unit length constant,the frequency of sound waves becomes $n_2$. The ratio of frequency $n_2$ to frequency $n_1$ is:

One insulated conductor from a household extension cord has a mass per unit length of $\mu$. $A$ section of this conductor is held under tension between two clamps. $A$ subsection is located in a magnetic field of magnitude $B$ directed perpendicular to the length of the cord. When the cord carries an $AC$ current of $i$ at a frequency of $f$,it vibrates in resonance in its simplest standing-wave vibration state. Determine the relationship that must be satisfied between the separation $d$ of the clamps and the tension $T$ in the cord.

Three similar wires of frequencies $n_1, n_2$ and $n_3$ are joined to form a single wire. What will be its resulting frequency $n$?

In an experiment to study standing waves,you use a string whose mass per unit length is $\mu = (1.0 \pm 0.1) \times 10^{-4} \ kg/m$. You look at the fundamental mode,whose frequency $f$ is related to the length $L$ and tension $T$ of the string by the equation $L = \frac{1}{2f} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$. You make a plot with $L$ on the $y$-axis and $\sqrt{T}$ on the $x$-axis,and find that the best-fitting line is $y = (8.0 \pm 0.3) \times 10^{-3}x + (0.2 \pm 0.04)$ in $SI$ units. What is the value of the frequency of the wave (including the error)? Express your result in $SI$ units $(Hz)$.
