In terms of T, `mu` and l, find frequency of
(a) fourth overtone mode
(b) third harmonic .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C
(a) Fourth overtone mode means
`n=5 (n=1,2,3,4,5)`
Therefore, using the equation
`f=(n)/(21) sqrt((T)/(mu)) = (5)/(2l) sqrt((T)/(mu))`
(b) Third harmonic means
n=3
` :. f=(3)/(2l) sqrt(T/mu)`.
