If the tension in a string is increased ...

If the tension in a string is increased by `21` percent, the fundamental frequency of the string changes by `15 Hz`. Which of the following statements will also be correct?

A

The original fundamental frequency is nearly `150 Hz`

B

The velocity of propagation changes nearly by `4.5%`

C

The velocity of propagation changes nearly by `10%`

D

The fundamental wavelength changes nearly by `10%`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C

`V prop sqrt(T)`
`f prop sqrt(T)`
`(t)/(f + 15) = ((T)/(T + (21T)/(100)))^(1/2) = (10)/(11)`
`11f = 10f + 150`
`f = 150 Hz`
