If you set up the seventh harmonic on a string fixed at both ends, how many nodes and antinodes are set up in it -

A

`7, 7`

B

` 7 , 8`

C

` 8, 7`

D

`9, 8`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

There are seven loops in the vibrating string. Hence there are 7 antinodes and ` 7 + 1 = 8` nodes.

A 660 Hz tuning fork sets up vibration in a string clamped at both ends. The wave speed for a transverse wave on this string is 1220 m s^-1 and the string vibrates in three loops. (a) Find the length of the string. (b) If the maximum amplitude of a particle is 0.5 cm, write a suitable equation describing the motion.

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.
