A string is vibrating in n loops. The numbers of nodes and anitnodes respectively are

A string of linear mass density 5.0 xx 10^-3 kg//m is stretched under a tension of 65 N between two rigid supports 60 cm apart. (a) If the string is vibrating in its second overtone so that the amplitude at one of its antinodes is 0.25 cm, what are the maximum transverse speed and acceleration of the string at antinodes? (b) What are these quantities at a distance 5.0 cm from an node?

A stretched string fixed at both end has n nods, then the lengths of the string is

The number of nodes and antinodes formed on a sonometer wire vibrating in second overtone are respectively.

When the string of the sonometer of length l between the bridges vibrates in the first overtone, then the antinode formed from one end of the string will be

Assertion : The fundamental frequency of a stretched string is directly proportional to the square root of the tension in the string if length and mass of the string are constant. Reason : There are n nodes and n antinodes forms when standing waves are formed in a stretched string.

In the fundamental mode of vibration on a stretched string, the number of antinodes are

When a stretched string of length L vibrating in a particular mode, the distance between two nodes on the string is l . The sound produced in this mode of vibration constitutes the nth overtone of the fundamental frequency of the string.

Assertion : In the nth normal mode of vibration of a string, there are (n+1) nodes and n antinodes. Reason : This is because both the ends of the string are fixed and from nodes.

A taut string at both ends viberates in its n^(th) overtone. The distance between adjacent Node and Antinode is found to be 'd'. If the length of the string is L, then
