The discussion focuses on calculating the wavelength and fundamental frequency of a vibrating string that is 1328 cm long and vibrates at 97 Hz with eight antinodes. The fundamental frequency can be determined using the formula for the fundamental frequency of a string, which is inversely proportional to its length and directly related to the number of antinodes. The wavelength can be calculated by dividing the length of the string by the number of sections (antidodes), resulting in a wavelength of 166 cm. The thread concludes with a reminder to provide detailed work in homework submissions.

It is held fixed at each end. The string vibrates in eight sections; i.e., the string has eight antinodes, and the string vibrates at 97 Hz.
Find the wavelength and fundamental frequency.
I have no clue, anything helps! Thank you!
