A string is fixed at the two ends and is vibrating in its fundamental mode. It is known that the two ends will ba at rest. A part from these, is there any position on the string ich can be touched so as not to disturb the motion of the string? What will be the answer to this question if the string is vibrating in its first and second overtones?
