In a sonometer experiment, two wires are fixed whose tensions are in the ratio of 4 : 1, lengths in the ratio of 29 : 26 and diameter are in ratio of 2 : 1 and densities are in ratio of 4 : 5. What will be the frequency of beats produced if the frequency of note of higher pitch is 400 `s^(-1)` ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem step by step, we will use the relationships between frequency, tension, length, diameter, and density of the wires in the sonometer experiment. ### Step 1: Understand the relationship of frequency The frequency of a wire can be expressed as: \[ f = \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\rho}} \] where: ...
