The linear mass density of the string shown in the figure is mu = 1 g//m . One end (A) of the string is tied to a prong of a tuning fork and the other end carries a block of mass M. The length of the string between the tuning fork and the pulley is L = 2.0 m . When the tuning fork vibrates, the string resonates with it when mass M is either 16 kg or 25 kg. However, standing waves are not observed for any other value of M lying between 16 kg and 25 kg. Assume that end A of the string is practically at rest and calculate the frequency of the fork.

The mass suspended from the stretched string of a sonometer is 4 kg and the linear mass density of string 4 xx 10^(-3) kg m^(-1) . If the length of the vibrating string is 100 cm , arrange the following steps in a sequential order to find the frequency of the tuning fork used for the experiment . (A) The fundamental frequency of the vibratinng string is , n = (1)/(2l) sqrt((T)/(m)) . (B) Get the value of length of the string (l) , and linear mass density (m) of the string from the data in the problem . (C) Calculate the tension in the string using , T = mg . (D) Substitute the appropriate values in n = (1)/(2l) sqrt((T)/(m)) and find the value of 'n' .

Transverse waves pass through the strings A and B attached to an object of mass m as shown. If mu is the linear density of each of the strings the velocity of the transverse waves produced in the strings A and B is

Four pieces of string of length L are joined end to end to make a long string of length 4L. The linear mass density of the strings are mu,4mu,9mu and 16mu , respectively. One end of the combined string is tied to a fixed support and a transverse wave has been generated at the other end having frequency f (ignore any reflection and absorption). string has been stretched under a tension F . Find the time taken by wave to reach from source end to fixed end.

A long string is constructed by joining the ends of two shorter strings. The tension in the strings is the same but string I has 4 times the linear mass density of string II. When a sinusoidal wave passes from string I to string II:

The frequency of vibration (v) of a string may depend upon length (I) of the string, tension (T) in the string and mass per unit length (m) of the string. Using the method of dimensions, derive the formula for v.

In (Q. 24.) the tension in string is T and the linear mass density of string is mu . The ratio of magnitude of maximum velocity of particle and the magnitude of maximum acceleration is
