A sonometer wire of length1.5mis made of steel. The tension in it produces an elastic strain of 1% . What is the fundamental frequency of steel if density and elasticity of steel are7.7×103 kg m-3and2.2×1011 N m-2respectively?

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

f = V 2 ℓ = 1 2 ℓ T μ = 1 2 ℓ T Ad

Also, Y = T ℓ A Δ ℓ       ⇒   T A = Y Δ ℓ ℓ       ⇒   f = 1 2 ℓ Y Δ ℓ ℓ d

ℓ = 1.5 m,  Δ ℓ ℓ = 0.01, d = 7.7 × 1 0 3  kg / m 3

Y = 2.2 × 1 0 1 1  N / m 2

After solving

f = 2 7 × 1 0 3 3 Hz

f  ≈  178.2  Hz
