A 660 Hz tuning fork sets up vibration in a string clamped at both ends. The wave speed for a transverse wave on this string is 220 m s−1 and the string vibrates in three loops. (A) Find the length of the string. (B) If the maximum amplitude of a particle is 05 cm, write a suitable equation describing the motion.
We know that,
![]()
So, ![]()
So, no of loops=3
Now, ![]()
(A)
Say, the resultant wave equation is,
![]()
Putting values of
,f and A, we get,
(B)
