    The tension in a piano wire is 10N. What should be the tension in the wire to produce a note of double the frequency                                                                       [AIIMS 2001]

    A)            5 N

    B)            20 N

    C)            40 N                                         

    D)            80 N

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                 \[n\propto \sqrt{T}\]Þ \[\frac{{{n}_{1}}}{{{n}_{2}}}=\sqrt{\frac{{{T}_{1}}}{{{T}_{2}}}}\] Þ \[\frac{n}{2n}=\sqrt{\frac{10}{{{T}_{2}}}}\]Þ \[{{T}_{2}}=40N\]
