The length of a sonometer wire has a total length of 1m between the fixed ends. Where should the two bridges be placed below the wire so the three segments of the wire have their fundamental frequencies in the ratio. 1:2:3 ?

Solution
Let the lengths of the three segments be x,y,1−(x+y).
Fundamental frequencies of each segment is inversely proportional to their lengths.
Let the frequencies be k′,2k′,3k′ since they are in ratio 1:2:3
