MCQ
A guitar string of length $90\,cm$ vibrates with a fundamental frequency of $120\,Hz.$ The length of the string producing a fundamental frequency of $180\,Hz$ will be $...........cm$.
  • $60$
  • B
    $59$
  • C
    $58$
  • D
    $57$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$60$
a
$f =\frac{ nv }{2 \ell}, \text { for fundamental mode } n =1$

$f =\frac{ v }{2 \ell}$

$f \propto \frac{1}{\ell}$

$\frac{ f _1}{ f _2}=\frac{\ell_2}{\ell_1}$

$\frac{120}{180}=\frac{\ell_2}{90}$

$\ell_2=60\,cm$

In a screw gauge, there are $100$ divisions on the circular scale and the main scale moves by $0.5\,mm$ on a complete rotation of the circular scale. The zero of circular scale lies $6$ divisions below the line of graduation when two studs are brought in contact with each other. When a wire is placed between the studs, $4$ linear scale divisions are clearly visible while $46^{\text {th }}$ division the circular scale coincide with the reference line. The diameter of the wire is $...........\times 10^{-2}\,mm$
