When a string is divided into three segments of length , and , the fundamental frequencies of these three segments are , and respectively. The original fundamental frequency () of the string is

Answer: (4)

Solution

The fundamental frequency of a stretched string of length is , where the wave speed is the same for all segments (same tension and mass per unit length). Hence and for the segments , $ =
