MCQ
A string of length $2 m$ is fixed at both ends. If this string vibrates in its fourth normal mode with a frequency of $500 Hz$ then the waves would travel on its with a velocity of ..... $m/s$
- A$125$
- B$250$
- ✓$500$
- D$1000 $
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
$500$
c
(c) For string $\lambda = \frac{{2l}}{p}$
where $p =$ No. of loops = Order of vibration
Hence for forth mode $p = 4$
(c) For string $\lambda = \frac{{2l}}{p}$
where $p =$ No. of loops = Order of vibration
Hence for forth mode $p = 4$
==> $\lambda = \frac{l}{2}$
Hence $v = n\lambda = 500 \times \frac{2}{2} = 500\,Hz$
