QJEEM21Ph22c5: JEE Main 2021 Physics - Class 11 JEEM21Ph22c5 Solution: A wire having a linear mass density 9.0 × 10 − 4 kg/m is…

A wire having a linear mass density 9.0 × 10−4 kg/m is stretched between two rigid supports with a tension of 900 N. The wire resonates at a frequency of 500 Hz. The next higher frequency at which the same wire resonates is 550 Hz. The length of the wire is ____________ m.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

μ=9.0×10−4kgm

T = 900 N

V=Tμ=9009×10−4=1000 m/s

f1 = 500 Hz

f = 550

nV2l=500 .... (i)

(n+1)V2l=500 .... (ii)

(ii) (i) V2l=50

l=10002×50=10
