- A string is clamped at both ends and driven at the right frequency to form a standing wave in the fundamental harmonic. If the wave has a wavelength of 50cm, how long is the string? 50 cm 100 cm or 25 cm ?arrow_forwardA guitar string has an overall length of 2.0 m and a total mass of 35.2 g before it is strung on a guitar. Once on the guitar, however, there is a distance of 85 cm between its fixed end points. It is tightened to a tension of 345 N. (a) What is wave speed for waves on the tightened string? (b) What are the wavelength and frequency of the traveling waves that interfere to form the fundamental and second harmonic standing waves on the string? Sketch standing wave patterns of both harmonic in this string.arrow_forwardTension is maintained in a string as in the figure below. The observed wave speed is v = 15.0 m/s when the suspended mass is m = 3.00 kg. (You may assume that the length of the vertical portion of the string is negligible compared to the length of the string.) (a) What is the mass per unit length of the string? kg/m (b) What is the wave speed when the suspended mass is m = 2.30 kg? m/sarrow_forward
