Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the frequency of a standing wave that has a wavelength of 2 meters and forms 5 antinodes along a string of length 10 meters. Assume the velocity of the wave is 340 m/s.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember the relationship between wave speed, frequency, and wavelength.

Question 2

Discuss how standing waves in a column of air can produce different musical notes, and how this relates to the concept of harmonics.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how different lengths of air columns affect the sound produced.
