28. The frequency of vibrations of a vibrating violin string is given by 1 f%3= 2L where L is the length of the string, T is its tension, and p is its linear density. [See Chapter 11 in D. E. Hall, Musical Acoustics, 3rd ed. (Pacific Grove, CA: Brooks/Cole, 2002).] (a) Find the rate of change of the frequency with respect to (i) the length (when T and p are constant), (ii) the tension (when L andp are constant), and (iii) the linear density (when L and T are constant).

A quartz watch contains a crystal oscillator in the form of a block of quartz that vibrates by contracting and expanding. An electric circuit feeds in energy to maintain the oscillation and also counts the voltage pulses to keep time. Two opposite faces of the block, 7.05 mm apart, are antinodes, moving alternately toward each other and away from each other. The plane halfway between these two faces is a node of the vibration. The speed of sound in quartz is equal to 3.70 103 m/s. Find the frequency of the vibration.
