One of the 65.0-cmcm-long strings of an ordinary guitar is tuned to produce the note B3B3 (frequency 245 HzHz) when vibrating in its fundamental mode. Part A: Find the speed of transverse waves on this string. Part B: If the tension in this string is increased by 1.7 %%, what will be the new fundamental frequency of the string? Part C: If the speed of sound in the surrounding air is 344 m/sm/s, find the frequency of the sound wave produced in the air by the vibration of the B3B3 string. Part D: If the speed of sound in the surrounding air is 344 m/sm/s, find the wavelength of the sound wave produced in the air by the vibration of the B3B3 string.
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.
