A particle of mass m is moving along the x-axis with initial velocity $$u\widehat i$$. It collides elastically with a particle of mass 10 m at rest and then moves with half its initial kinetic energy (see figure). If $$\sin {\theta _1} = \sqrt n \sin {\theta _2}$$ then value of n is ________.

A wire of density 9 $$ \times $$ 10^–3 kg cm^–3 is stretched between two clamps 1 m apart. The resulting strain in the wire is 4.9 $$ \times $$ 10^–4. The lowest frequency of the transverse vibrations in the wire is : (Young’s modulus of wire Y = 9 $$ \times $$ 10¹⁰ Nm^–2), (to the nearest integer), _________
