A stone is hung in air from a wire which is stretched over a sonometer. The bridges of the sonometer are L cm apart when the wire is in unison with a tuning fork of frequency N . When the stone is completely immersed in water, the length between the bridges is l cm for re-establishing unison, the specific gravity of the material of the stone is

A

`(L^(2))/(L^(2)+l^(2))`

A stone hangs in air from one end of a wire, which is stretched over a sonometer. The wire is in unison with a certain tuning fork when the bridges of sonometer are 45 cm apart. Now the stone hangs immersed in water at 4^(@)C and the distance between the bridges has to be altered by 9cm to re-establish unison of the wire with the same fork. Calculate the density of the stone.
