A string of length L = 1.20 m is fixed at both ends and is stretched with a tension provided by a weight of 1.763 kg. If the mass per unit length of the string is 0.0012 kg/m, what will be the fundamental frequency of the vibration of the string? The above string is now made to vibrate at the same frequency by adjusting its tension, but in its third harmonic. What is the new tension on the string?

A string is tied across the opening of a deep well, at a height 5 m above the water level. The string has length 7.51 m and linear density 4.17 g/m; any time there is a wind, the string vibrates like mad. The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s. Assuming that the resonance causing this vibration involves the lowest harmonics of both the string and the well, calculate the string's tension. Answer in units of N.
In a demonstration, a 1.2 kg horizontal rope is fixed in place at its two ends (x = 0 and x = 2.0 m) and made to oscillate up and down in the fundamental mode, at frequency 5.0 Hz. At t 0, the point at x = 1.0 m has zero displacement and is moving upward in the positive direction of a y axis with a transverse velocity of 5.0 m/s.What are (a) the amplitude of the motion of that point and (b) the tension in the rope?
