How do I apply basic physics principles to solve problems in sound?
Nevermind, to find velocity you take frequency times wavelength... Thanks for the help (rolls eyes).- GabrielStigmatic

How do I apply basic physics principles to solve problems in sound?
Please guys I need help with at least this, so on the problem P.1 A guitar string 60 cm long has a mass of 3.2 x 10-3 kg and vibrates at the fundamental frequency of 390 Hz. The wavelength λ = ______ m and the string tension T = _______ N. Ok on the website that Astronauc gave me it shows the...- GabrielStigmatic

Oh wait, you multiply length times 2 and then convert it to meters. And that should be the wavelength of oscillations. I was just getting confused with wavelength and oscillations I think.- GabrielStigmatic

So for this one, A guitar string 60 cm long vibrates at the fundamental frequency of 218 Hz. The frequency of the third harmonic = 654 Hz and the wavelength of these oscillations = ___________ m you convert it to meters? I keep getting the wrong answer. I'm confused.- GabrielStigmatic

How do I apply basic physics principles to solve problems in sound?
Hey guys, my name is Gabriel. I no experience whatsoever with physics except this class I've enrolled in called the Basic Physics of Sound. It's suppose to be completely algebra based, I'm just horrible at math in general. I need some help with a couple of problems. Also, if you could tell me...- GabrielStigmatic
