medium

Transverse waves of same frequency are generated in two steel wires $A$ and $B$. The diameter of $A$ is twice of $B$ and the tension in $A$ is half that in $B$. The ratio of velocities of wave in $A$ and $B$ is

$1\;:\;3\sqrt 2 $

$1\;:\;2\sqrt 2 $

$1\;:\;2$

$\sqrt 2 \;:\;1$

Solution

(b) $v = \sqrt {\frac{T}{m}} = \sqrt {\frac{T}{{\pi {r^2}\rho }}} $

$v \propto \frac{{\sqrt T }}{r} $

$\Rightarrow \frac{{{v_A}}}{{{v_B}}} = \sqrt {\frac{{{T_A}}}{{{T_B}}}} .\frac{{{r_B}}}{{{r_A}}} = \sqrt {\frac{1}{2}} .\frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{{2\sqrt 2 }}$

The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire increases by $6$ $Hz$ if its tension is increased by $44\%$ keeping the length constant. The change in the fundamental frequency of the sonometer wire in $Hz$ when the length of the wire is increased by $20\%$, keeping the original tension in the wire will be :-
