Question
In an experiment, it was found that the string vibrates in $3$ loops when 'x' g was as mass of placed on the scale pan. What must be placed on the pan to make the string vibrate in 9 loops?

Answer

Frequency of vibration of string vibrating in P loops is
$\text{v}=\frac{\text{P}}{2\text{l}}\sqrt{\frac{\text{T}}{\mu}}$
$TP^2 =$ constant
$\text{T}_1\text{P}^2_1=\text{T}_2\text{P}^2_2$
$\text{T}_2=\text{T}_1\Big(\frac{\text{P}_1}{\text{P}_2}\Big)^2$
$=\text{x}\Big(\frac{3}{9}\Big)^2=\text{x}\frac{9}{81}=\frac{\text{x}}{9}$

Two small balls A and B, each of mass m, are joined rigidly by a light horizontal rod of length L. The rod is clamped at the centre in such a way that it can rotate freely about a vertical axis through its centre. The system is rotated with an angular speed w about the axis. A particle P of mass m kept at rest sticks to the ball A as the ball collides with it. Find the new angular speed of the rod.

Anvils made of single crystals of diamond, with the shape as shown in Fig., are used to investigate behaviour of materials under very high pressures. Flat faces at the narrow end of the anvil have a diameter of $0.50mm$, and the wide ends are subjected to a compressional force of $50,000N$. What is the pressure at the tip of the anvil?
A rod of length $L$ is placed along the $X-$axis between $x = 0$ and $x = L$. The linear density $($mass$/$ length$) \rho$ of the rod varies with the distance $x$ from the origin as $\rho=\text{a + bx.}$

The magnifying power of a converging lens used as a simple microscope is $\Big(1+\frac{\text{D}}{\text{f}}\Big).$ A compound microscope is a combination of two such converging lenses. Why don't we have magnifying power $\Big(1+\frac{\text{D}}{\text{f}_\text{o}}\Big) \Big(1+\frac{\text{D}}{\text{f}_\text{o}}\Big)?$ In other words, why can the objective not be treated as a simple microscope but the eyepiece can?
