What factors determine the frequency of a note emitted by a vibrating string?
A
Amplitude of vibration, force constant of string and length of string
B
Amplitude of vibration, force constant of string, and tension in string
C
Mass per unit length of string, tension in string and length of string
D
Force constant of string, tension in string, and length of string.
Verified Correct Answer: C.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
The fundamental frequency of vibrations of a string is inversely proportional to the square root of mass per unit length (linear density),
if the tension and vibrating length of the string are constant.
