A 2.2 g guitar string, or length of 60cm is under tension of 53N. (fixed at both ends). It plucks so that it vibrates at its 3rd harmonic frequencey. What is Longer, the wavelength of the wave on the guitar string, or the waveflength of the wave it emits into the room temperature air surrounding it?
Interference of sound
Seiche
A seiche is an oscillating standing wave in a body of water. The term seiche pronounced saysh) can be understood by the sloshing of water back and forth in a swimming pool. The same phenomenon happens on a much larger scale in vast bodies of water including bays and lakes. A seizure can happen in any enclosed or semi-enclosed body of water.

I think I am getting the right frequency but I'm stumped getting the lave length comparisons. I tried ussing pressure formulas but am getting weird answers.
Thank you for the help.
