Question (1)
QN0038681

A string is stretched between two fixed points separated by . It is observed to have resonant frequencies of  and . There are no other resonant frequencies between these two. The lowest resonant frequency for this string is :      

  • (A)

  • (B)

  • (C)

  • (D)

Correct Answer: C
Explanation:

In a stretched string all multiples of frequencies can be obtained i.e., if fundamental frequency is  then higher frequencies will be ...

So, the difference between any two successive frequencies will be '  '

According to question,

So the lowest frequency of the string is .

Question (6)
QN0038686

In a guitar, two strings  and  made of same material are slightly out of tune and produce beats of frequency . When tension in B is slightly decreased, the beat frequency increases to . If the frequency of is 530 , the original frequency of  will be

  • (A)

  • (B)

  • (C)

  • (D)

Correct Answer: A
Explanation:

Frequency of string,

Frequency

Difference of  and  is .

If tension decreases,  decreases and becomes .
Now, difference of  and  (increases)
