The frequency of vibration of a string d...

The frequency of vibration of a string depends on, (i) tension in the string (ii) mass per unit length of string, (iii) vibrating length of the string. Establish dimension the relation for frequency.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`n prop I^(a) T^(b)m^(c), [I] = [M^(0)L^(1)T^(0)]`
`[T] = [M^(1)L^(1)T^(-2)]` (force)
`[M] = [M^(1) L^(-1) T^(0)]`
`[M^(0)L^(0)T^(-1)] = [M^(0)L^(1)T^(0)]^(a) [M^(1)L^(1)T^(-2)]^(b) [M^(0)L^(-1)T^(0)]^(c)`
b + c = 0
a + b - c = 0
-2b = -1 `rArr b = 1/2`
c `= -1/2 a = 1`
`n prop 1/l sqrt(T/m)`
