Question

Question Part Points Submissions Used A musician plays a string on a guitar that has a fundamental frequency of 330.0 Hz. The string is 65.2 cm long and has a mass of 0.268 g. (a) What is the tension in the string?
N

(b) At what speed do the waves travel on the string?
m/s

(c) While the guitar string is still being plucked, another musician plays a slide whistle that is closed at one end and open at the other. He starts at a very high frequency and slowly lowers the frequency until beats, with a frequency of 5 Hz, are heard with the guitar. What is the fundamental frequency of the slide whistle with the slide in this position?
Hz

(d) How long is the open tube in the slide whistle for this frequency?
m

Explanation / Answer

lambda= 2*L=2*0.652=1.304 m

v=f*lambda

a) ==> sqrt(T/mu)=f*lambda

==> T= mu*(f*lambda)^2=(0.268E-3/0.652)*(330*1.304)^2=76.11 N

b) speed= f*lambda= 330*1.304=430.32 m/s

c) fundamental frequency = (330-5)=325 Hz

d) v=f*lambda

==> 343.2=325*4*L

==> L=0.264 m= 26.4 cm
