In Fig. 16-42, a string, tied to a sinusoidal oscillator at Pand running over a support at Q, is stretched by a block of mass m.The separation L between P and Q is 1.20 m, and the frequency fof the oscillator is fixed at 120 Hz.The amplitude of the motion atP is small enough for that point to be considered a node.A nodealso exists at Q.
