What is the frequency of second harmonic in the longer wire

Reference no: EM13666029

Two pieces of steel wire with identical cross sections have lengths of L and 3L. The wires are each fixed at both ends and stretched so that the tension in the longer wire is five times greater than that in the shorter wire. If the fundamental frequency in the shorter wire is 50 Hz, what is the frequency of the second harmonic in the longer wire?
