(a) A steel wire with mass 29.9 g and length 1.16 m is strung on a bass so that the distance from the nut to the bridge is 1.10 m. (a) Compute the linear density of the string. 2.58e-2 kg/m (b) What velocity wave on the string will produce the desired fundamental frequency of the E1 string, 41.2 Hz? (c) Calculate the tension required to obtain the proper frequency. (d) Calculate the wavelength of the string's vibration. (e) What is the wavelength of the sound produced in air? (Assume the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.) 8.3 m
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.
Please complete and show all work for b, c, and d.
