A small ring is threaded on an inextensible frictionless cord of length 2l.  The ends of the cord are fixed to a horizontal ceiling.  In equilibrium, the ring is at a depth h below the ceiling.  Now the ring is pulled aside by a small distance in the vertical plane containing the cord and released.  If period of small oscillations of the ring is kπ, find k.  Given,

since l α λ α v/n          n is frequency

on increasing temperature, v increases so λ increases

for first resonance l = λ/4

and for third resonance L = 3λ'/4

and λ' > λ so x will be more than 54

for first case       l = λ/2      so l = v/2f                

for second case l/2 = λ/4  so  l/2 = v/4f   

so f in both case are same.

Joshi sir comment

Let intensity of one source = I

then intensity at a point where two waves meet in phase = I+I+2√I√Icos0 = 4I

now loudness = 10logI/I0 due to a single source

and loudness at the point where 2 waves meet in phase = 10log4I/I0 = 10logI/I0+ 10log4

since 10log4 = 6 so increment = 6

at top point tension in the string = 16g

and at bottom point T = 4g

and v = √(T/m)   here m is mass per unit length which is same throughout the rope.

first calculate v at both the points

frequency will be same throughout 

so use the formula v = nλ twice 

once at bottom and once at top point

then by diving these 2 formulae we will get the result

try it.

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
