In Melde's experiment, when the tension is 100 g and the tuning fork vibrates at right angles to the direction of the string, 4 loops are produced. If now, the tuning fork is set to vibrate along the string, what additional weight will make the string vibrate in 1 loop? 

In Melde's experiment the position is changed from parallel to perpendicular. To get same number of loops, What should be the new length if original length is $l$? (Tension in the string is kept constant) 

In Melde's experiment four loops were formed on a string under tension T. When the tension in the string was increased by $3g$, two loops were observed. The original tension T in the string is :

In Meldes experiment, the tuning fork is arranged in the parallel position. During $200$ vibrations of the tuning fork, the string ccompletes vibrations

If there are six loops for 1 m length in transverse mode of Melde's experiment., the no. of loops in longitudinal mode under otherwise identical condition would be

In Melde's experiment, the string vibrates in seven segments under tension of $9\space gm-wt$. If string is to be vibrated in three segments then the tension required will be

In Melde's experiment, frequency can _______ by ________number of loops of the  string.

The  apparatus of Melde's experiment can be used to test the relationship between 
A. Tension
B. Mass per unit length 
C. Frequency
D. Wavelength
Choose the most appropriate option among the following?

The fundamental frequency of sonometer wire is 600Hz. When length wire is shorted by 25%, the frequency of ${ 1 }^{ st }$ overtone will be

In Melde's experiment when longitudinal position is used 4 loops are formed on string under tension of 16 g-wt . Now the string is replaced by another string of same material but of diameter half of the previous diameter and length half that of the original strings . What should be the tension in the string to obtain 2 loops on the strings , when B position is used ?
