AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to use the relationship between the frequency of a wire and its length. The frequency (f) of a vibrating wire is inversely proportional to its length (L) when the tension and other properties remain constant. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Values:** - Length of the first wire (L1) = 80 cm - Frequency of the first wire (f1) = 256 Hz - Frequency of the second wire (f2) = 1024 Hz ...
