$A$ sonometer wire resonates with a given tuning fork forming standing waves with five antinodes between the two bridges when a mass of $9 \ kg$ is suspended from the wire. When this mass is replaced by a mass $M$,the wire resonates with the same tuning fork forming three antinodes for the same positions of the bridges. The value of $M$ is ... $kg$.

The transverse displacement in a stretched string is given by $y = 0.06 \sin \left( \frac{2\pi}{3}x \right) \cos (120\pi t)$,where $x$ and $y$ are in $m$ and $t$ is in $s$. The length of the string is $1.5 \, m$ and its mass is $3.0 \times 10^{-2} \, kg$. The tension in the string is ..... $N$.

The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire is $n$. If the tension is increased $3$ times,the length is increased $3$ times,and the diameter is increased $2$ times,what will be the new frequency?

$A$ string is under tension of $180 \ N$ and mass per unit length $2 \times 10^{-3} \ kg/m$. It produces two consecutive resonant frequencies with a tuning fork,which are $375 \ Hz$ and $450 \ Hz$. The mass of the string is: (in $g$)

The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire is $50 \ Hz$ for a given length and tension. If the length is increased by $25 \%$ while keeping the tension constant,what is the percentage change in the frequency of the second harmonic?

$A$ thin wire of length $99 \ cm$ is fixed at both ends as shown in the figure. The wire is kept under a tension and is divided into three segments of lengths $l_1, l_2$ and $l_3$ as shown in the figure. When the wire is made to vibrate,the segments vibrate respectively with their fundamental frequencies in the ratio $1: 2: 3$. Then,the lengths $l_1, l_2$ and $l_3$ of the segments respectively are (in $cm$):
