Question: A long string is constructed by joining the ends of 2 shorter strings. The tension in thestrings is the same but string I has 4

A long string is constructed by joining the ends of 2 shorter strings. The tension in thestrings is the same but string I has 4 times the linear mass density of string II. When asinusoidal wave passes from string I to string II:A) the frequency decreases by a factor of 4B) the frequency decreases by a factor of 2C) the wave speed decreases by a factor of 4D) the wave speed decreases by a factor of 2E) the wave speed increases by a factor of 2
