Question

A guitar string has been plucked so it vibrates with the longest wavelength possible (fundamental). Now you hold the string down 1/2 of the way in from one end so it cant move there. If you pluck the string now, how does the new longest wavelength possible compare to the original one? Anew-Aold Anew Aold /4

    Cryptography, the study of secret writing, has been around for a very long time, from simplistic techniques to sophisticated mathematical techniques. No matter what the form however, there are some underlying things that must be done – encrypt the message and decrypt the encoded message. One of the earliest and simplest methods ever used to encrypt and decrypt messages is called the Caesar cipher method, used by Julius Caesar during the Gallic war. According to this method, letters of the...
