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

The frequency of a sonometer wire is $n$. If its tension is increased $4$ times and its length is doubled,then the new frequency will be

$A$ sonometer wire stretched by weight '$w$' is in unison with a tuning fork. The corresponding resonating length is '$L_1$'. If the weight is increased by '$3w$',the corresponding resonating length of the sonometer in unison with the tuning fork becomes '$L_2$'. The ratio $\left(\frac{L_1}{L_2}\right)$ is:
