  • A
    $\frac{n}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{n}{2\sqrt{2}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{2}n$
  • D

$A$ wire of length $2L$ is made by joining two wires $A$ and $B$ of same lengths but different radii $r$ and $2r$ and made of the same material. It is vibrating at a frequency such that the joint of the two wires forms a node. If the number of antinodes in wire $A$ is $p$ and that in $B$ is $q$,then the ratio $p : q$ is

Two uniform 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 wire,then the ratio of the lengths of the first wire to the second wire is:

The fundamental frequency of a transverse wave of a stretched string subjected to a tension $T_1$ is $300 \ Hz$. If the length of the string is doubled and subjected to a tension of $T_2$,the fundamental frequency of the transverse wave in the string becomes $100 \ Hz$. Then $T_2: T_1=$ (Linear density of the string is constant)
