(a) What is the wavelength of the waves that travel on the string? (b) What is the speed of the waves? (c) What is the fundamental frequency of the string?
You want to manufacture a guitar such that the instrument will be in tune when each of the strings are tightened to the same tension. The middle (D) string on the guitar should have fundamental frequency 146.83 Hz. The highest (E) string should have fundamental frequency 329.63 Hz. If the D string has linear mass density 0.00430kg/m, what should be the mass density of the E string? Assume all the strings are the same length.
The low E string on my guitar has a fundamental frequency of 82 Hz. I turn the tuning knob on my guitar and the frequency increases by 10%. By what percentage did I increase the tension in the string?
1. The frequency of a Low E string on a tuned guitar is 82.41 Hz. Determine: a) The velocity of the sound if the wavelength of the lowest note is twice the length of the guitar (25.5 inches). Hint: Convert this value to meters b) The tension in the string if the mass per unit length of the string is 0.00578 kg/m.
