QNEET-2013-Ph-1618: NEET 2013 Physics - Class 11 NEET-2013-Ph-1618 Solution: The length of the wire between two ends of a sonometer is 100…
The length of the wire between two ends of a sonometer is 100 cm. What should be the positions of two bridges below the wire so that the three segments of the wire have their fundamental frequencies in the ratio 1:3:5.
Multiple Choice Options
- A 23 1500 _ c m , 23 500 _ c m
- B 23 1500 _ c m , 23 300 _ c m
- C 23 300 _ c m , 23 1500 _ c m
- D 23 1500 _ c m , 23 2000 _ c m
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
From formula, f = 1 x T m
_ 1 f _ l
_ l 1 : l 2 : l 3 = 1 f 1 : 1 f 2 : 1 f 3
= f 2 f 3 : f 1 f 3 : f 1 f 2
[Given: f 1 : f 2 : f 3 = 1 : 3 : 5]
= 15 : 5 : 3
Therefore the positions of two bridges below the wire are
15 _ 100 15 + 5 + 3 c m and 15 _ 100 + 5 _ 100 15 + 5 + 3 c m
_ 1500 23 c m , 2000 23 c m
