30 cm length of the wire gives note of frequency 300 Hz when plucked in the middle . What length of the wire will produce a note a frequency 400 Hz for constant tension ?

A

15cm

B

22.5cm

C

45cm

D

60cm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`l_2/l_1 =n_2/n_1 therefore l_2 = (30xx300)/(400) = 22.5cm`
