Correct Answer – 41
Let frequency tuning fork `= f`
frequency of wave in wire `= (v)/(2l)`
when `l = 1 m`
`f_(1) = (v)/(2)`
when `l = 1.05m`
`f_(2) = (v)/(2 xx (1.05))`
`f_(1) – f = 5` , and `f – f_(2) = 5 rArr f_(1) – f_(2) = 10`
`rArr (v)/(2)(1 – (1)/(1.05)) = 10` or `v = (20 xx 1.05)/(0.05) = 420 m//s`.
`f_(1) = (v)/(2) = 210 Hz`.
`f = f_(1) – 5 = 205 Hz`.
