उत्तर
A standing wave is produced on a string clamped at one end and free at the other. The length of the string must be an odd integral multiple of `lambda/4`.
Explanation:
The frequency (v) of a standing wave, fixed at one end and free at the other end is:
v = `((2n + 1)/2) v/(2L)`
Since V = `vlambda`
⇒ v = `(n + 1/2) (Vlambda)/(2L)`
⇒ L = `((2n + 1)/4)lambda`
⇒ L = `lambda/4, (3lambda)/4`,....
Therefore the length of the string is an odd integral multiple of `lambda/4`.
