A guitar string has a linear mass density of 0.004 kg/m, a tension of 100 N, and is supposed to have a fundamental frequency of 110 Hz. When a tuning fork of that frequency is sounded while the string is plucked, a beat frequency of 4 Hz is heard. The peg holding the string is loosened, decreasing the tension, and the beat frequency increases. Before it was loosened and while it still had a tension of 100 N, The frequency...

A guitar string has a linear mass density of 0.005 kg/m, a tension of 100 N, and is supposed to have a fundamental frequency of 110 Hz. When a tuning fork of that frequency is sounded while the string is plucked, a beat frequency of 2 Hz is heard. The peg holding the string is tightened, increasing the tension, and the beat frequency increases. Before it was tightened and while it still had a tension of 100 N, The frequency...
