A stretched string of length l, fixed at both ends can sustain stationary waves of wavelength `lambda` given by

A

`lambda=(n^(2))/(2l)`

B

`lambda=(l^(2))/(2n)`

C

`lambda=(2l)/(n)`

D

`lambda=2ln`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Since, `(nlambda)/(2)=Iimplieslambda=(2l)/(n)`
`implies lambda=(2l)/(n)` [n = number of loops].
