Question
A.) I start with a bar 1.82 meters long. How long must I make a second bar to be a perfect fifth above the first?
B.) A vibrating bar has a fundamental frequency of 423 Hz. Find the frequency of the 3rd overtone and bring it down by octaves until you are in the octave starting with the fundamental. What frequency is this? Note, 2.76f is the first overtone.
