Question
State the ways by which the frequency of transverse vibrations of a stretch string can be increased.
Advertisements
Solution
`f = 1/(2l) sqrt(T/m)`
where \(l\) is the length of the vibrating string, \(T\) is the tension, and \(m\) is the mass per unit length.
Therefore, the frequency can be increased by:
- Decrease the length of the vibrating string.
- Increase the tension in the string.
