MCQ
A string fixed at both ends is in resonance in its $2^{nd}$ harmonic with a tuning fork of frequency $f_1$. Now its one end becomes free. If the frequency of the tuning fork is increased slowly from $f_1$ then again a resonance is obtained when the frequency is $f_2$. If in this case the string vibrates in $n^{th}$ harmonic then
  • A
    $n = 3, f_2 =\frac{3}{4}f_1$
  • B
    $n = 3, f_2 =\frac{5}{4}f_1$
  • $n = 5, f_2 =\frac{5}{4}f_1$
  • D
    $n = 5, f_2 =\frac{3}{4}f_1$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$n = 5, f_2 =\frac{5}{4}f_1$
c
$\mathrm{F}_{1}=\frac{2}{2 \ell} \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{T}}{\mathrm{m}}}$

$\mathrm{F}_{2}=\frac{5}{4} \mathrm{F}_{1}$
