Answer:
1 mi = 5280 ft * 12 in/ft = 63360 in
A convenient conversion factor (to remember) is 1 m = 39.37 in
63360 in / (39.37 in / m) = 1609.3 m
26 mi + 285 m = 26 * 1609.3 + 385 = 42,228 m
Given:
The length of the string is l = 6 m
The speed of the wave is

Required: Lowest possible frequency for the standing wave.
Explanation:
The lowest possible frequency is the fundamental frequency.
The fundamental frequency can be calculated by the formula

On substituting the values, the fundamental frequency will be

Final Answer: The lowest possible frequency for standing waves on this string is 16.67 Hz
You would have to use a machine to convert the colors to one visible by humans or become some other species of animal with a larger light spectrum.
