Two wires are fixed in a sonometer. Their tensions are in the ratio $8:1$. The lengths are in the ratio $36:35$. The diameters are in the ratio $4:1$. Densities of the materials are in the ratio $1:2$. If the lower frequency in the setting is $360 \ Hz$,the beat frequency when the two wires are sounded together is: (in $Hz$)

When a string of length $l$ is divided into three segments of length $l_1, l_2$ and $l_3$,the fundamental frequencies of the three segments are $n_1, n_2$ and $n_3$ respectively. The original fundamental frequency $n$ of the string is:

$A$ tuning fork vibrating with a sonometer having a wire of length $20 \,cm$ produces $5$ beats per second. The beat frequency does not change if the length of the wire is changed to $21 \,cm$. The frequency of the tuning fork must be ............ $Hz$.

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

The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire of length $l$ is $n_0$. $A$ bridge is now introduced at a distance of $\Delta l$ (where $\Delta l \ll l$) from the center of the wire. The lengths of wire on the two sides of the bridge are now vibrated in their fundamental modes. Then,the beat frequency is nearly

$A$ wire of density $9 \times 10^3 \text{ kg/m}^3$ is stretched between two clamps $1 \text{ m}$ apart and is subjected to an extension of $4.9 \times 10^{-4} \text{ m}$. The lowest frequency of transverse vibration in the wire is ..... $\text{Hz}$ $(Y = 9 \times 10^{10} \text{ N/m}^2)$.
