    Two identical straight wires are stretched so as to produce $6$ beats per second when vibrating simultaneously. On changing the tension in one of them, the beat frequency remains unchanged. Denoting by ${T_1},\,{T_2}$, the higher and the lower initial tensions in the strings, then it could be said that while making the above change in tension

    Two uniform strings of mass per unit length $\mu$ and $4 \mu$, and length $L$ and $2 L$, respectively, are joined at point $O$, and tied at two fixed ends $P$ and $Q$, as shown in the figure. The strings are under a uniform tension $T$. If we define the frequency $v_0=\frac{1}{2 L} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$, which of the following statement($s$) is(are) correct?

    $(A)$ With a node at $O$, the minimum frequency of vibration of the composite string is $v_0$
