A `20 cm` long string, having a mass of `1.0 g`, is fixed at both the ends. The tension in the string is `0.5 N`. The string is set into vibrations using an external vibrator of frequency `100 Hz` Find the separation (in cm) between the successive nodes on the string.
.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
5

`v=sqrt((T)/(mu))=10 m//s , lambda=v/f=10/100=10 cm`
Distance between the successive nodes `=lambda//2=5cm`
