Chapter 17, Problem 15P

Review. A sphere of mass M = 1.00 kg is supported by a string that passes over a pulley at the end of a horizontal rod of length L = 0.300 m (Fig. P17.15). The string makes an angle θ = 35.0° with the rod. The fundamental frequency of standing waves in the portion of the string above the rod is f = 60.0 Hz. Find the mass of the portion of the string above the rod.

Figure P17.15 Problems 15 and 16.

A nylon guitar string is fixed between two lab posts 2.00 m apart. The string has a linear mass density of μ = 7.20 g/m and is placed under a tension of 160.00 N. The string is placed next to a tube, open at both ends, of length L. The string is plucked and the tube resonates at the n = 3 mode. The speed of sound is 343 m/s. What is the length of the tube?
Two straight metal wires connected to each other end-to-end. The first wire is made of magnesium and has a length of 13 m. The other wire is made of nickel and its length is 20 m. Both wires have the same cross-sectional diameter of 0.22 cm. They are stretched to a tension force of 1680 N. What time does it take for a transverse wave to travel through the entire system of two wires? The densities of magnesium and nickel are 1738 kg/m3 and 8908 kg/m3, respectively.
A string with a linear mass density of μ = 0.0062 kg/m is stretched between two posts 1.30 m apart. The tension in the string is 150.00 N. The string oscillates and produces a sound wave. A 1024-Hz tuning fork is struck and the beat frequency between the two sources is 52.83 Hz. What are the possible frequency and wavelength of the wave on the string?
