Question
(II) A particular violin string plays at a frequency of 294 $\mathrm{Hz}$. If the tension is increased $15 \%,$ what will the new frequency be?
Step 1
We know that $T_2$ is 15% greater than $T_1$, so we can write $T_2 = 1.15 \cdot T_1$. Show more…

Two violin strings are tuned to the same frequency, 294 Hz. The tension in one string is then decreased by 2.5$\%$. What will be the beat frequency heard when the two strings are played together? [$Hint$: Recall Eq. 11$-$13.]

Two identical strings with the same tension vibrate at 631 $\mathrm{Hz}$ . If the tension in one of the strings is increased by $2.25 \%,$ what is the resulting beat frequency?
A vibrating string has a fundamental frequency of $250 \mathrm{Hz}$. The tension is then increased by a factor of $1.9 .$ What is the new value of the fundamental frequency?
