Question
Write a formula for the frequency of vibration of a stretched string in the case of a sonometer.
✓
Answer
Frequency of vibration, $v_s$ given by,
$\text{v}=\frac{\text{k}}{\text{l}}\sqrt{\frac{\text{T}}{\mu}}$
where l is the length of the string between wedges, T is the tension in the string, and u is mass per unit length of the string. k is a constant which depends upon the mode of vibration of the string.
