Three longest wavelengths will correspond to the three modes of vibration that has the least amount of nodes.  For a standing wave on a string fixed on both ends we have the following formula:
\lambda_n=\frac{2L}{n}; n=1,2,3,4,5,...
Where L is the length of a string and n is the number of nodes of the standing wave.
From this formula, we see that the more nodes you have the lower your wavelength is.
We need to calculate wavelengths for n=1, n=2, and n=3.
\lambda_1=\frac{2L}{1}=560$cm\\ \lambda_2=\frac{2L}{2}=280$cm\\ \lambda_3=\frac{2L}{3}=186.67$cm\\

How long did it take for a message sent from earth to reach the first astronauts?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Time taken for a message to sent from earth to reach the first astronauts is  140 second.

It takes about three days for a spacecraft to reach the Moon. in the course of that time a spacecraft travels at the least 240,000 miles 386,400 km that is the space between Earth and the Moon. The specific distance depends at the specific path selected.

The distance from earth to moon is approximately3.84*108m

So, the distance from earth to the astronauts is3.84*108m - 10500*103m =3.735*108m

The speed of light c = 2.99792458*108m/s

So, divided the distance from earth to astronauts by the speed off light,

3.735*108m/2.99792458*108m/s ˜1.25seconds

Divided the Pluto-earth distance by speed of light:

Hence, 4.2*1010m/2.99792458*108m/s = 140seconds

An opera singer breaks a crystal glass with her voice. Which best explains why this occurs? The pitch of her voice matches the p
aalyn [17]

The frequency at which the body vibrates breaks is natural frequency. The glass with her voice because the frequency of her voice matches the natural frequency of the glass.

<h3>What is the natural frequency?</h3>

When there is no external force acting on the body unless the body vibrates is known as the natural frequency of vibration.it is denoted by \rm w_n.

when the frequency of a body matches the natural frequency a condition occurs known as resonance.

To learn more about the natural frequency refer to the link;
