A string of a certain musical instrument is 60.0 cm long (from bridge to upper end of the fingerboard) and has a mass of 2.00 g. The string is tuned to an A4 note (440 Hz) when played. Where must a player put a finger ( at what distance from the bridge) to play a D5 note (587 Hz)? For both notes, the string vibrates in its fundamental mode. Without retuning, is it possible to play a G4 note (392 Hz) on this string? Why or why not?
