A guitar with strings of length L = 0.65 m has new strings put on it. The low E string has a linear density of ρ = 0.0069 kg/m and when tuned properly should produce a fundamental tone of ν = 82.41 Hz. a. What is the proper tension the string should be under, in Newtons? b. If the string was mistakenly tuned to high E (ν = 330 Hz) what would the tension be, in Newtons? (Note that in reality, the string would likely break!)

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.
