    Two wires $W_1$ and $W_2$ have the same radius $r$ and respective densities ${\rho _1}$ and ${\rho _2}$ such that ${\rho _2} = 4{\rho _1}$. They are joined together at the point $O$, as  shown in the figure. The combination is used as a sonometer wire and kept under tension $T$. The point $O$ is midway between the two bridges. When a stationary waves is set up in the composite wire, the joint is found to be a node. The ratio of the number of an tin odes formed in $W_1$ to $W_2$ is
