(d) $n \propto \frac{1}{l}\sqrt T $

==> $\frac{{n'}}{n} = \sqrt {\frac{{T'}}{T}} \times \frac{l}{{l'}} = \sqrt 4 \times \frac{1}{2} = 1$

==> $n' = n$

    A narrow tube is bent in the form of a circle of radius $R,$ as shown in the figure. Two small holes $S$ and $D$ are made in the tube at the positions right angle to each other. A source placed at $S$ generated a wave of intensity $I_0$ which is equally divided into two parts : One part travels along the longer path, while the other travels along the shorter path. Both the part waves meet at the point $D$ where a detector is placed  The maximum value of $\lambda$ to produce a maxima at $D$ is given by
