Problem

A sonometer wire 0.90 m0.90\,\text{m} long vibrates in its fundamental mode with frequency 150 Hz150\,\text{Hz} when stretched by a load producing 50 N50\,\text{N} tension. If the tension is increased to 200 N200\,\text{N}, what will be the new fundamental frequency of the wire? (Assume the length and mass per unit length remain unchanged.)
