The frequency of a sonometer wire is $f$. When the weights producing the tension are completely immersed in water,the frequency becomes $f/2$. When the weights are immersed in a certain liquid,the frequency becomes $f/3$. The specific gravity of the liquid is:

If $n_{1}, n_{2}$ and $n_{3}$ are the fundamental frequencies of three segments into which a string is divided,then the original fundamental frequency $n$ of the string is given by

The length of a sonometer wire is $0.75\, m$ and density is $9 \times 10^3\, kg/m^3$. It can bear a stress of $8.1 \times 10^8\, N/m^2$ without exceeding the elastic limit. What is the fundamental frequency that can be produced in the wire in $Hz$?

In an experiment to study standing waves,you use a string whose mass per unit length is $\mu = (1.0 \pm 0.1) \times 10^{-4} \ kg/m$. You look at the fundamental mode,whose frequency $f$ is related to the length $L$ and tension $T$ of the string by the equation $L = \frac{1}{2f} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$. You make a plot with $L$ on the $y$-axis and $\sqrt{T}$ on the $x$-axis,and find that the best-fitting line is $y = (8.0 \pm 0.3) \times 10^{-3}x + (0.2 \pm 0.04)$ in $SI$ units. What is the value of the frequency of the wave (including the error)? Express your result in $SI$ units $(Hz)$.
