Two strings with circular cross section and made of same material, are stretched to have same amount of tension. A transverse wave is then made to pass through both the strings. The velocity of the wave in the first string having the radius of cross section R is v1\mathrm{v}_1v1​, and that in the other string having radius of cross section R/2R / 2R/2 is v2v_2v2​. Then v2v1=\frac{v_2}{v_1}=v1​v2​​=
