A sonometer wire under a tension of N10N, produces a frequency of 250Hz when plucked. Keeping the length of the wire constant, the tension is adjusted to produce a new frequency of 350Hz. Calculate the new tension

f \(\alpha\) \(\sqrt{T}\)
\(\frac{f_1}{f_2} = \sqrt{\frac{T_1}{T_2}}\)
\(\frac{250}{350} = \sqrt{\frac{10}{T_2}}\)
\(\frac{5}{7} = \sqrt{\frac{10}{T_2}}\)
\(\frac{25}{49} = \frac{10}{T_2}\)
T2 = \(\frac{49 \times 10}{25} = 19.6\)
\(\frac{f_1}{f_2} = \sqrt{\frac{T_1}{T_2}}\)
\(\frac{250}{350} = \sqrt{\frac{10}{T_2}}\)
