Two wires of same material and radii r and 2r respectively are welded together end to end. The combination is used as a sonometer wire and kept under tension T. the welded point is mid-way between the two bridges. When stationary waves are set up in the composite wire, the joint is a node. Then the ratio of the number of loops formed in the thinner to thicker wire is, (P.M.T. 90)
