#### Question

A sonometer wire vibrates with frequency n1 in air under suitable load of specific gravity of . When the load is immersed in water, the frequency of vibration of wire n2 will be .........

(a)  n_1sqrt((sigma+1)/sigma)

(b) n_1sqrt((sigma-1)/sigma)

(c) n_1sqrt(sigma/(sigma+1))

(d) n_1sqrt(sigma/(sigma-1))

#### Solution

n_1sqrt((sigma-1)/sigma

Specific gravity or relative density is

n_1/n_2=sqrt(sigma/(sigma-1)

∴n_2=n_1sqrt((sigma-1)/sigma)

Is there an error in this question or solution?
