None of these is correct.
A stretched string is fixed at points 1 and 5. When it is vibrating at the second harmonic frequency, the nodes of the standing wave are at points
1 and 5.
1, 3, and 5.
1 and 3.
2 and 4.
1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
A stretched string is fixed at points 1 and 5. When it is vibrating in its first harmonic frequency, the nodes are at points
1 and 5 only.
1, 3, and 5.
2 and 4.
2, 3, and 4.
1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Of the sound sources shown, that which is vibrating with its first harmonic is
the whistle.
the organ pipe.
the vibrating string.
the vibrating rod.
None of these.
A string fixed at both ends is vibrating in a standing wave. There are three nodes between the ends of the string, not including those on the ends. The string is vibrating at a frequency that is its
fundamental.
second harmonic.
third harmonic.
fourth harmonic.
fifth harmonic.
