A string is stretched between two fixed points separated by It is observed to have resonant frequencies of There are no other resonant frequencies between these two. Then, the lowest resonant frequency for this string is :


Important Questions on Vibrations of Stretched Strings
The linear density of a vibrating string is In this string, a transverse wave is propagating whose equation is where are measured in meter and in second. The approximate tension in the string is :

What type of vibration are produced in a sonometer wire?

The transverse displacement of a wave on a string is given by This represents a:


A tuning-fork vibrating with a sonometer wire of length produces beats per second. The beat frequency does not change if the length of the wire is changed to The frequency of the tuning-fork (in hertz) must be :

A tuning fork of frequency vibrating with a sonometer wire produces If on lightening the wire the number of beats per second decreases, then the frequency of the wire will be :

Select all the correct alternatives. Two identical straight wires are stretched so as to produce when vibrating simultaneously. On changing the tension slightly in one of them, the beat-frequency remains unchanged. Denoting by the higher and the lower initial tensions in the strings, then it could be said that while making the above changes in tension.

A horizontal stretched string fixed at two ends, is vibrating in its fifth harmonic according to the equation Assuming the correct statement is (are)
