Concept explainers

Stretched string

A stretched string is a wire which is made up of any metal that must have a larger length compared to its thickness. The ends of the wire are fixed, and when they oscillate or are plucked, it produces two reflected transverse waves of the same frequency and same amplitude. The waves or pulses are traveling in alternate directions and superimpose with one another. This waveform is named standing or stationary waves.

Question

A standing transverse wave is formed in a string that is 5.0 m long. Both ends of the string are
fixed. Eight loops are present in the standing wave. Answer the following questions about the
wave. Make sure to show all work clearly.
