    should be increased.
  • B

$A$ 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

$A$ steel wire of length $1 \ m$ and mass $0.1 \ kg$ and having a uniform cross-sectional area of $10^{-6} \ m^2$ is rigidly fixed at both ends. The temperature of the wire is lowered by $20^{\circ} C$. If the wire is vibrating in its fundamental mode,find the frequency (in $Hz$).

$A$ 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 $cm$):

Two wires of the same material are vibrating under the same tension. If the first overtone of the first wire is equal to the second overtone of the second wire and the radius of the first wire is twice the radius of the second,then the ratio of the length of the first wire to the second wire 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.
