Detailed Solution

Concept- We will change the parameters in the sonometer formula to resolve this issue.A sonometer operating formula is required. i.e.

f n = n 2 l T m

, where,

f n

is the frequency of n t h mode, n is the mode number, l is the wire's length, t is its tension, and m is the linear mass density of the wire, or its mass per unit length.
If the lengthens and the tension are cut in half

l 1

then from the above condition,

1 2 l T m = 2 2 l 1 T 2 m

n was not included in the formula because it is a constant number.

⇒ l 1 = 12

.
Hence, the correct option is 2.
