Question

If a wiggling string has a natural frequency of 34.5 Hz to produce 4 harmonics, what is the period of the string?

Answer 1

Answer:

$T = \frac{1}{f}$

And replacing we got:

$T = \frac{1}{34.5 Hz}= 0.0290 s$

And then we can conclude that with the conditions given the period of the string would be 0.0290 s

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know the frequency associated to the 4 harmonic.

We know that by definition the frequency is the inverse of the period:

$f= \frac{1}{T}$

If we solve for the period we got:

$T = \frac{1}{f}$

And replacing we got:

$T = \frac{1}{34.5 Hz}= 0.0290 s$

And then we can conclude that with the conditions given the period of the string would be 0.0290 s
