The D-string on a properly tuned guitar produces a tone with a fundamental frequency of 146.8 Hz. The oscillating length of a D-string on a certain guitar is 0.65 m. This same length of string is weighed and found have a mass of 1.4×10-3 kg.

25% Part (a) At what tension, in newtons, must the D-string must be stretched in order for it to be properly tuned?
T = 78.443
T = 78.44     ✔ Correct!

  25% Part (b) What is the wavelength, in meters, of the standing wave in the D-string when it is oscillating at its third harmonic (also called its second overtone)?
λ3 = 0.43     ✔ Correct!
  25% Part (c) Determine the frequency, in hertz, of the third harmonic of the tone produced by the properly tuned D-string.
