80 cm string having tension of 200 N and mass of 0.8 g is plucked at fundamental frequency. What is the wavelength of sound that your ear will hear? velocity of sound is 343 m/s.
Added by David H.
Step 1
First, we need to find the linear mass density (µ) of the string. Linear mass density is the mass per unit length of the string. We have the mass (m) and the length (L) of the string. µ = m / L Show more…

The mass of a string is 8.40 10-3 kg, and it is stretched so the tension in it is 225 N. A transverse wave traveling on this string has a frequency of 260 Hz and a wavelength of 0.60 m. What is the length of the string? m

A $2 \cdot 00 \mathrm{~m}$ -long rope, having a mass of $80 \mathrm{~g}$, is fixed at one end and is tied to a light string at the other end. The tension in the string is $256 \mathrm{~N}$. (a) Find the frequencies of the fundamental and the first two overtones. (b) Find the wavelength in the fundamental and the first two overtones.
