Q35 of 97 Page 323

A wire of length 200 m is stretched to a tension of 160 N. If the fundamental frequency of vibration is 100 Hz, find its linear mass density.

We know that, fundamental frequency,



Putting the values, we get, m=1 g/m.

Two waves, each having a frequency of 100 Hz and a wavelength of 20 cm, are travelling in the same direction on a string. What is the phase difference between the waves (A) if the second wave was produced 0015 s later than the first one at the same place, (B) if the two waves were produced at the same instant but the first one was produced a distance 40 cm behind the second one? (C) If each of the waves has an amplitude of 20 mm, what would be the amplitudes of the resultant waves in part (A) and (B)?
