Question

Problem 2: The portion of the string of a certain musical instrument between the bridge and upper end of the finger board (that part of the string that is free to vibrate) is 60.0 cm long, and this length of the string has mass 2.00 g The string sounds a A4 note (440 Hz) when played. (a) Where must the player put a finger (what distance x from the bridge) to play a Ds note (587 Hz) (see figure beside) For both the A4 and D5 notes, the string vibrates in its fundamental mode. (b) Without retuning, is it possible to play a G4 note (392 Hz) on this string? Why or shy not? (c) The tension in this string is increased by 1.0%. 1) What will be the new fundamental frequency of the string without putting a finger? 2) What is the new position of x where the player must put his finger to play Ds note? temperature Tc = 20°C by the vibration of D5 note? rises to 30°C? (d) What is the frequency and wavelength of the sound wave produced in the air at e) What will be the frequency and wavelength of question (d) if the temperature of the air
