MCQ
A string of length $1\ m$ fixed at both ends is vibrating in $3^{rd}$ overtone. Tension in string is $200\ N$ and linear mass density is $5\ gm/m$ . Frequency of these vibrations is ..... $Hz$
  • A
    $200$
  • B
    $250$
  • C
    $300$
  • $400$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$400$
d
$II{I^{rd}}$ overtone

$\mathrm{f}=\frac{4 \mathrm{V}}{2 \mathrm{L}}=\frac{2 \mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{L}}=\frac{2}{1} \sqrt{\frac{200}{(5 / 1000)}}=2(200)$

$\mathrm{f}=400 \mathrm{\,Hz}$
