A string is clamped at both the ends and it is vibrating in its `4^(th)` harmonic. The equation of the stationary wave is `Y=0.3 sin(0.157x) cos(200pi t)`. The length of the string is : (All quantities are in SI units.)

A

60 m

B

20 m

C

80 m

D

40 m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Clearly `(2pi)/(lambda)= 0.157 " " :. lambda=40m`
Hence for `4^(th)` harmonic, `l=4xx lambda/2 = 80m`
