$A$ string vibrates in its fundamental mode when a tension $T_1$ is applied to it. If the length of the string is decreased by $25 \%$ and the tension applied is changed to $T_2$, the fundamental frequency of the string increases by $100 \%$, then $\frac{T_2}{T_1} =$ (Linear density of the string is constant)

$A$ sonometer wire has a length of $114 \ cm$, between two fixed ends. Where should two bridges be placed so as to divide the wire into three segments (in $cm$) whose fundamental frequencies are in the ratio $1:3:4$?

$A$ thin wire of length $99 \ cm$ is fixed at both ends as shown in the figure. The wire is kept under a tension and is divided into three segments of lengths $l_1, l_2$ and $l_3$ as shown in the figure. When the wire is made to vibrate, the segments vibrate respectively with their fundamental frequencies in the ratio $1: 2: 3$. Then, the lengths $l_1, l_2$ and $l_3$ of the segments respectively are (in $cm$):

Two uniform wires of same material are vibrating under the same tension. If the $1^{\text{st}}$ overtone of the $1^{\text{st}}$ wire is equal to the $2^{\text{nd}}$ overtone of the $2^{\text{nd}}$ wire and the radius of the $1^{\text{st}}$ wire is twice the radius of the $2^{\text{nd}}$ wire,find the ratio of the length of the $1^{\text{st}}$ wire to that of the $2^{\text{nd}}$ wire.

$A$ certain string will resonate at several frequencies,the lowest of which is $200 \,Hz$. What are the next three higher frequencies at which it resonates?
