Ok, so I used this new answer and followed the same steps as I described earlier and its still not the right answer. My answer was 241.927. Its greater than the original frequency, but still not the right answer.
So then I did 34.9 / 220 and got 0.15863 for the wavelength. Then I divided that by 2 and got 0.0793. After that, do I follow the same steps as I desctibed in the problem?
Two strings which are fixed at both ends are identical except that one is 0.65 cm longer than the other. Waves on both of these string propagate with a speed of 34.9 m/sec and the fundamental frequency of the shorter string is 220 Hz.
a) What is frequency of the beat that would result if...
A student gets a 3 kg mass to oscillate up and down on bottom of a light vertical spring by pulling her hand up and down on the top end of the spring. The spring is a real spring with a spring constant of 94 N/m and a damping constant of 0.6 N sec/m.
(a) At what approximate frequency should...
The position of the center of the box shown is given by the equation:
x = 4.4 m * cos(29/sec * t)
(a) What is the position of the box 2 seconds after the oscillations have started?
x = m
I don't know how to start A. I plugged in 2 seconds for t in the above equation, but my answer...
