The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire of length $l$ is $n_0$ . A bridge is now introduced at a distance of $\Delta l ( < < l)$ from the centre 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 nearly is

  • A

    $n_0\ \Delta l/l$

  • B

    $8\ n_0\ \Delta l/l$

  • C

    $2\ n_0\ \Delta l/l$

  • D

    $n_0\ \Delta l/2l$
