Two strings which are fixed at both ends are identical except that one is 0.59 cm longer than the other. Waves on both of these string propagate with a speed of 34.2 m/sec and the fundamental frequency of the shorter string is 220 Hz.

1)

What is frequency of the beat that would result if these two strings were plucked at the same time?

fbeat =

2) What is the beat frequency if the length difference is now 0.76 cm?

fbeat =

Standing waves are set up on two strings fixed at each end, as shown in the drawing. The two strings have the same tension and mass per unit length, but they differ in length by 0.51 cm. The waves on the shorter string propagate with a speed of 42.6 m/s, and the fundamental frequency of the shorter string is 232 Hz. Determine the beat frequency produced by the two standing waves.

Standing waves on a 1.5-meter long string that is fixed at both ends are seen at successive (that is, modes m and m + 1) frequencies of 38 Hz and 42 Hz respectively. The tension in the string is 720 N. What is the fundamental frequency of the standing wave? Hint: recall that every harmonic frequency of a standing wave is a multiple of the fundamental frequency. What is the speed of the wave in the string? What is the...

The high-E string on a guitar (...standard tuning...) is fixed at both ends (...the nut and the bridge...) with a length of 67.0 cm. The fundamental frequency (HE4 ) is 330 Hz. On a typical acoustical country guitar, this string has a diameter of 0.33 mm and is commonly make of brass (7760 kg/m3), whereas on an electric guitar, the string has a diameter of 0.25 mm and is made of nickel-coated steel (7990 kg/m3). Find the ratio of the...
