Stationary Waves & Vibrating Strings

A uniform string is vibrating with a fundamental frequency 'nn'. If radius and length of string both are doubled keeping tension constant then the new frequency of vibration is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. n=12LrTπρ⇒n∝1Lrn = \dfrac{1}{2Lr}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\pi\rho}} \Rightarrow n \propto \dfrac{1}{Lr} at constant TT.
  2. n′=n2×2=n4n' = \dfrac{n}{2\times2} = \dfrac{n}{4}
  3. So the answer is (c) n4\dfrac{n}{4}.
