A sonometer wire is emitting a note a frequency n, when stretched by a weigth. If the weigth is completely immersed in water, then the frequency of the wire

A

will be zero

B

will not change

C

will decrease

D

will increases

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The effect weight ( Tension) will decrease . As ` n propto sqrtT`,n will decrease.
