A wire of material A that is 33 cm long and 2.00 mm in diameter is perfectly connected to a wire of material B that is 90 cm long and of the same diameter. The resulting wire is stretched with 5 N tension between fixed supports 123 cm apart. The densities of A and B are 2000 kg/m³ and 605 kg/m³, respectively. (I) What is the lowest frequency of the standing wave for which there is a node at the junction between the two materials? (II) At the frequency of question (I), how many antinodes are there in th

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.
