A wire of length $30\,cm$, stretched between rigid supports, has it's $n^{\text {th}}$ and $(n+1)^{\text {th}}$ harmonics at $400\,Hz$ and $450\; Hz$, respectively. If tension in the string is $2700\,N$, it's linear mass density is.........$kg/m$.

Solution

$\frac{ nv }{0.6}=400 \& \frac{( n +1) v }{0.6}=450$

$\left[\frac{0.6 \times 400}{ v }+1\right] \frac{ v }{0.6}=450$

$= v =30$

$\sqrt{\frac{ T }{\mu}}=30$

$\frac{2700}{\mu}=900=\mu=3$
