In an experiment with sonometer when a mass of $180\,g$ is attached to the string, it vibrates with fundamental frequency of $30\,Hz$. When a mass $m$ is attached, the string vibrates with fundamental frequency of $50\,Hz$. The value of $m$ is $.........\,g$.

$f =\frac{1}{2 \ell} \sqrt{\frac{ T }{\mu}} \quad( T : \text { Tension })$

$\frac{ f _2}{ f _1}=\sqrt{\frac{ T _2}{ T _1}}$

$\left(\frac{50}{30}\right)^2=\frac{ mg }{180 g } \Rightarrow m =\frac{25}{9} \times 180=500 \text { gram }$
