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
    $2 n$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} n$
  • C
    $\frac{n}{2 \sqrt{3}}$

$A$ sonometer wire $49 \ cm$ long is in unison with a tuning fork of frequency '$n$'. If the length of the wire is decreased by $1 \ cm$ and it is vibrated with the same tuning fork,$6$ beats are heard per second. The value of '$n$' is (in $Hz$)

$A$ piano string $1.5 \, m$ long is made of steel of density $7.7 \times 10^3 \, kg/m^3$ and Young's modulus $2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$. It is maintained at a tension which produces an elastic strain of $1 \%$ in the string. The fundamental frequency of transverse vibrations of the string is ......... $Hz$.

Unlike a laboratory sonometer,a stringed instrument is seldom plucked in the middle. Supposing a sitar string is plucked at about $\frac{1}{4}$th of its length from the end. The most prominent harmonic would be

Two uniform stretched strings $A$ and $B$,made of steel,are vibrating under the same tension. If the first overtone of $A$ is equal to the second overtone of $B$ and if the radius of $A$ is twice that of $B$,the ratio of the lengths of the strings is

If the length of a stretched string is shortened by $x \%$ and the tension is increased by $44 \%$,then the ratio of the initial and final fundamental frequencies is $1:2$. The value of '$x$' is:
