AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between frequency and length The frequency of a sonometer wire is inversely proportional to its length. This means that if the length of the wire increases, the frequency decreases. ### Step 2: Define the variables Let: - \( \mu \) = frequency of the tuning fork ...
