A certain string is pulled taught between two supports, a
distance L apart. When the string is
driven at a frequency of 850 Hz a standing wave is observed with n
anti-nodes. When the string is
driven at 1190 Hz a standing wave is observed with n + 2
anti-nodes.
a) What is the fundamental frequency of the set-up?
b) What is the numerical value of n?
c) The distance between the supports is kept fixed, as is the
linear mass density of the string, but
the tension in the string is increased from
to
where
is a positive constant greater
than 1. While the tension is increased the string is still driven
at 1190 Hz, and at first it is observed
that the standing wave pattern disappear, but for certain values of
a
standing wave pattern is again
observed. What is the smallest value of that again produces
standing waves? How many anti-nodes
are observed?

A long string is tied between two posts very far apart (treat as infinitely far). Waves on this string travel with speed 75 m/s. The string is being driven by two oscillators. One is located at X1=0 m and the other is located at X2=6 m. Oscillator 1 drives at 575 Hz with amplitude 1.6 cm, and oscillator 2 drives a 325 Hz with amplitude 3.7 cm. Both oscillators start at maximum displacement when t=0 s. What is the displacement...
