Question
a sonometer wire supports a 4kg load and vibrates in fundamental mode with a tuning fork of frequency 416 Hz. the length of the wire between the bridges is now doubled. in order to maintain fundamental mode the load should be changed to
Joshi sir comment
for sonometer wire
in fundamental mode l = λ/2 = v/2f here l, λ and f are length , wavelength and frequency respectively
now v = √(T/µ) here T and µ are tension and mass per unit length
so finally we will get l = √(T/µ)/2f
make two equations by using this formula and given conditions
in the two equations f and µ will be same
