What are the frequency and wavelength of the hum?
Tuning the Guitar Before a performance, a piano is tuned so that the middle A string emits sound at 440 Hz. The guitarist sounds an A on her instrument while that note is played simultaneously on the piano and hears beats at a frequency fbeat = 2 Hz. As she tightens the string of her guitar, the beat frequency decreases. The beats completely disappear when her guitar is in tune with the piano. What was the fundamental frequency of her guitar before it was tuned?
