The Viking god of rock, Val Halen, has a guitar string with a length of 3.20x10-3 kg/m with a length of 0.648m. When he strums the string, the fifth harmonic for the string can be heard at 550.Hz. a) What is the speed of the wave on the string in meters per second? b) What is the tension force in the string in Newtons? Do not use scientific notation in your answer.
