A streched wire vibrating in fundamental mode is in unision with a tuning fork. Keeping the same tension, the length of the wire between the bridges is doubled. The tuning fork can still be in resonance with the wire. Provided the wire now vibrates in

A stretched sonometer wire is in unison with a uning fork. When the length is increased by 2% the number of beats per second is 5. Find the frequency of the forks.

A pipe of length 1.5m closed at one end is filled with a gas and it resonates in its fundamental with a tuning fork. Another pipe of the same length bur open at both ends is filled with air and it also resonates in its fundamental with the same tuning fork. Calculate the velocity of sound at 0^(@)C in the gas. Given that the velocity of sound in air is 360 m/s at 30^(@)C where the experiment is performed.

A stretched wireof length 0.6m is observed to vibrate with a frequency of 30 Hz in the fundamental mode. If the string has a linear massof 0.05 kg //m . Find (a) the velocity of propagation of transverse wave in the string (b) the tension in the string.

When a vibrating tuning fork is placed on a sound box of a sonometer, 8 beats per second are heard when the length of the sonometer wire is kept at 101cm or 100cm. Then the frequency of the tuning frok is (consider that the tension in the wire is kept constant)
