$A$ steel wire of length $1.25 \ m$ is stretched between two rigid supports. The tension in the wire produces an elastic strain of $0.14 \%$. The fundamental frequency of the wire is (Density and Young's modulus of steel are $7.7 \times 10^3 \ kg \ m^{-3}$ and $2.2 \times 10^{11} \ N \ m^{-2}$ respectively). (in $Hz$)

$A$ stationary wave is produced along a stretched string of length $80 \,cm$. The resonant frequencies of the string are $90 \,Hz$, $150 \,Hz$, and $210 \,Hz$. The speed of the transverse wave in the string is: (in $\,m/s$)

Two vibrating strings of the same material but lengths $L$ and $2L$ have radii $2r$ and $r$ respectively. They are stretched under the same tension. Both the strings vibrate in their fundamental modes,the one of length $L$ with frequency $n_1$ and the other with frequency $n_2$. The ratio $n_1/n_2$ is given by
