A string 25cm long and having a mass of 2.5 gm is under tension. A pipe closed at one end is 40cm long. When the string is set vibrating in its first overtone and the air in the pipe in its fundamental frequency, 8 beats per second are heard. It is observed that decreasing the tension in the string decreases beat frequency. If the speed of sound in air is 320m//s , find the tension in the string.
