Question

In the standing waves experiment, the string has a mass of 31.2 g and a length of 0.7 m. The string is connected to a mechanical wave generator that produce standing waves with frequency of f. The other end of the string is connected to a mass holder (mholder = 50.0 g) that carries a weight of 5.00x10^2 g. Calculate the linear density of the string.

Answer 1

Answer:

linear density of the string = 4.46 × 10⁻⁴ kg/m

Explanation:

given,

mass of the string = 31.2 g

length of string = 0.7 m

linear density of the string = $\dfrac{mass\ of\ string}{length}$

linear density of the string = $\dfrac{31.2\times 10^{-3}\ kg}{0.7\ m}$

linear density of the string = 44.57 × 10⁻³ kg/m

linear density of the string = 4.46 × 10⁻⁴ kg/m
