Two wires $W_1$ and $W_2$ have the same radius $r$ and respective densities ${\rho _1}$ and ${\rho _2}$ such that ${\rho _2} = 4{\rho _1}$. They are joined together at the point $O$, as  shown in the figure. The combination is used as a sonometer wire and kept under tension $T$. The point $O$ is midway between the two bridges. When a stationary waves is set up in the composite wire, the joint is found to be a node. The ratio of the number of an tin odes formed in $W_1$ to $W_2$ is

A string fixed at one end is vibrating in its second overtone. The length of the string is $10\ cm$ and maximum amplitude of vibration of particles of the string is $2\ mm$ . Then the amplitude of the particle at $9\ cm$ from the open end is

A tuning fork vibrating with a frequency of $512$ $\mathrm{Hz}$ is kept close to the open end of a tube filled with water. The water level in the tube is gradually lowered. When the water level is $17$ $\mathrm{cm}$ below the open end, maximum intensity of sound is heard. If the room temperature is $20^{°}$ $\mathrm{C}$, calculate :

$(a)$ speed of sound in air at room temperature

$(b)$ speed of sound in air at $0^{°}$ $\mathrm{C}$.

$(c)$ if the water in the tube is replaced with mercury, will there be any difference in your observations ?
