A string is cut into three parts, having fundamental frequencies \(n_1,n_2,\) and \(n_3\) respectively. The original fundamental frequency \(n\) is related by the expression:
1. \(\frac{1}{n}= \frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}+\frac{1}{n_3}\)
2. \(n= n_1\times n_2\times n_3\)
3. \(n= n_1+ n_2+ n_3\)
4. \(n= \frac{n_1+ n_2+ n_3}{3}\)

2. \(400~\text{Hz}\)
3. \(320~\text{Hz}\)
