A violinist places her finger so that the vibratingsection of a 1.0g/m string has a length of30cm, then she draws her bow across it. A listenernearby in a 20 degree Celsius room(vsound=343m/s) hears a note with a wavelength of40cm. What is the tension in this string?(remember the speed of sound in air is not necessarilythe same as the speed of the waveson the string)
A 2.2 g guitar string, or length of 60cm is under tension of 53N. (fixed at both ends). It plucks so that it vibrates at its 3rd harmonic frequencey. What is Longer, the wavelength of the wave on the guitar string, or the waveflength of the wave it emits into the room temperature air surrounding it? I think I am getting the right frequency but I'm stumped getting the lave length comparisons. I tried ussing pressure formulas but am getting weird answers. Thank you for the help.

Two identical loudspeakers placed 3.00 m apart are driven by the same oscillator (as shown). A listener is originally at point O, located 8.00 m from the center of the line connecting the two speakers. The listener then moves to point P, which is a perpendicular distance 0.350 m from O, and she experiences the first minimum in sound intensity. What is the frequency ofthe oscillator?
