In a sonometer experiment the bridges are separted by a fixed distance the wire which is slightly elastic emits a tone of frequency n when held by tension T If the tension is increased to 4T the tone emitted by the wire will be of frequency

A vibrating string of certain length l under a tension T resonates with a mode corresponding to the first overtone (third harmonic) of an air column of length 75cm inside a tube closed at one end. The string also generates 4 beats per second when excited along with a tuning fork of frequency n . Now when the tension of the string is slightly increased the number of beats reduces 2 per second. Assuming the velocity of sound in air to be 340 m//s , the frequency n of the tuning fork in Hz is

A metal wire of diameter 1 mm is held on two knife edges separated by a distance of 50 cm. The tension in the wire is 100 N. The wire vibrates with its fundamental frequency and a vibrating tuning fork together produce 5 beat/s . The tension in the wire is then reduced to 81 N. When the two are excited , beats are heard at the same rate, then the frequency of the fork will be

A sonometer wire under certain tension is in unison with a tuning fork. When only the tension in the wire is increased by 2 % , 3 beats per second are produces.Find the frequency of fork.

A sonometer wire 36 cm long vibrates with a fundamental frequency of 280Hz , when it is under tension of 24.5 N . Calculate mass per unit length of wire.

Two idential straight wires are stretched so as to produce 6 beats per second when vibrating simultaneously. On changing the tension slightly in one of them, the beat frequency remains unchanged. Denoting by T_(1) , T_(2) the higher and the lower initial tension in the strings, then it could be said that while making the above changes in tension,
