Two strings A and B, made of the same material, have equal lengths. The cross sectional area of A is half that of B while the tension on A is twice that on B. The ratio of the velocities of transverse waves in A and B is

Transverse waves are generated in two uniform wires A and B of the same material by attaching their free ends to a vibrating source of frequency 200 Hz. The Area of cross section of A is half that of B while tension on A is twice than on B. The ratio of wavelengths of the transverse waves in A and B is

Two strings of the same material and the same area of cross-section are used in sonometer experiment. One is loaded with 12kg and the other with 3 kg. The fundamental frequency of the first string is equal to the first overtone of the second string. If the length of the second string is 100 cm, then the length of the first string is
