You have a string with a mass of 0.0135 kg. You stretch the string with a force of 8.29 N, giving it a length of 1.83 m. Then you vibrate the string transversely at precisely the frequency that corresponds to its fourth normal mode, that is, at its fourth harmonic. What is the wavelength of the standing wave you create in the string

Respuesta :

The wavelength of the standing wave at fourth harmonic is; λ = 0.985 m and the frequency of the wave at the calculated wavelength is; f = 36.84 Hz

Given Conditions:

mass of string; m = 0.0133 kg

Force on the string; F = 8.89 N

Length of string; L = 1.97 m

1. To find the wavelength at the fourth normal node.

At the fourth harmonic, there will be 2 nodes.

Thus, the wavelength will be;

λ = L/2

λ = 1.97/2

λ = 0.985 m

2. To find the velocity of the wave from the formula;

v = √(F/(m/L)

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

v = √(8.89/(0.0133/1.97)

v = 36.2876 m/s

Now, formula for frequency here is;

f = v/λ

f = 36.2876/0.985

f = 36.84 Hz
