A guitar string is 90 cm long and has a fundamental frequency of 124 Hz. Where should it be pressed to produce a fundamatal frequecy of 186 Hz?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will use the relationship between the frequency of a vibrating string and its length. The fundamental frequency (F) of a string is given by the formula: \[ F = \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{\frac{F}{\mu}} \] Where: - \( F \) is the tension in the string, ...
