Question
thumb_up100%
For a string stretched between two supports, two successive standing-wave frequencies are 535Hz and 615 Hz. There are other standing-wave frequencies lower than 535 Hz and higher than 615 Hz. If the speed of transverse waves on the string is 358 m/s, what is the length of the string? Assume that the mass of the wire is small enough for its effect on the tension in the wire to be neglected.
