Learning Goal:
To understand standing waves, including calculation of X and
f, and to learn the physical meaning behind some musical
terms.
The columns in the figure (Figure 1) show the instantaneous
shape of a vibrating guitar string drawn every 1 ms. The
guitar string is 60 cm long.
The left column shows the guitar string shape as a sinusoidal
traveling wave passes through it. Notice that the shape is
sinusoidal at all times and specific features, such as the crest
indicated with the arrow, travel along the string to the right at
a constant speed.
The right column shows snapshots of the sinusoidal standing
wave formed when this sinusoidal traveling wave passes
through an identically shaped wave moving in the opposite
direction on the same guitar string. The string is momentarily
flat when the underlying traveling waves are exactly out of
phase. The shape is sinusoidal with twice the original
amplitude when the underlying waves are momentarily in
nhaco Thic nattern is called a standing wave heralice.no

Waves of all wavelengths travel at the same speed v on a given string. Traveling wave velocity and wavelength are related by
v=Xf.
where v is the wave speed (in meters per second), A is the wavelength (in meters), and f is the frequency [in inverse seconds, also known as hertz (Hz)].
Since only certain wavelengths fit properly to form standing waves on a specific string, only certain frequencies will be represented in that string's standing
wave series. The frequency of the nth pattern is
fn == (2L/n) = nz

Note that the frequency of the fundamental is f₁ = v/(2L), so f₁ can also be thought of as an integer multiple of fi: fn = nf₁.
Part C
The frequency of the fundamental of the guitar string is 320 Hz. At what speed v do waves move along that string?
