Two uniform stretched strings $A$ and $B$,made of steel,are vibrating under the same tension. If the first overtone of $A$ is equal to the second overtone of $B$ and if the radius of $A$ is twice that of $B$,the ratio of the lengths of the strings is

$A$ steel wire of length $1.25 \ m$ is stretched between two rigid supports. The tension in the wire produces an elastic strain of $0.14 \%$. The fundamental frequency of the wire is (Density and Young's modulus of steel are $7.7 \times 10^3 \ kg \ m^{-3}$ and $2.2 \times 10^{11} \ N \ m^{-2}$ respectively). (in $Hz$)

At the poles of the earth,a stretched wire of a given length vibrates in unison with a tuning fork. At the equator of the earth,for the same setting,to produce resonance with the same fork,the vibrating length of the wire

Two uniform wires of same material are vibrating under the same tension. If the first overtone of the first wire is equal to the second overtone of the second wire and the radius of the first wire is twice the radius of the second wire, then the ratio of the length of the first wire to the second wire is:
