    Two vibrating strings of the same material but lengths $L$ and $2L$ have radii $2r$ and $r$ respectively. They are stretched under the same tension. Both the strings vibrate in their fundamental modes, the one of length $L$ with frequency $n_1$ and the other with frequency $n_2$. The ratio $n_1/n_2$ is given by

    Two small identical speakers are connected in phase to the same source. The speakers are $3 \,m$ apart and at ear level. An observer stands at $P, 4 \,m$ in front of one speaker as shown alongside. The sound she hears is least intense when the wavelength is $\lambda_1$ and most intense when the wavelength is $\lambda_2$. Then, the possible values of $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ are
