Looking at the spectrum displayed on the spectrum analyzer, the fundamental will generally be the left-most vertical spike above 0Hz. However, to qualify as the fundamental, this tone must have a specific harmonic relationship to the other components of the sampled signal.
The relationship is that every upper tone in the signal should be an integer-multiple of the frequency of the fundamental. Thus, if you find three spikes, one at 200Hz, one at 300Hz and one at 400Hz, the 200Hz tone is not the fundamental. That would be a tone at 100Hz, and the signal you are looking at has a 'suppressed fundamental'.
Likewise, if the signal described above also had a spike at 50Hz, this _could_ be the fundamental, where the second harmonic (at 100Hz), third harmonic (at 150Hz) fifth harmonic (at 250Hz) and all harmonics above the sixth are being suppressed.
An additional worthy test is to turn off the signal and look at the spectrum. If there are signal components displayed that don't relate to the sample, they would show up after the signal is removed. (I.e., do an analysis of silence, and anything that shows up needs to be subtracted or discounted from the signal spectrum.)

What is color absorption?
Absorption spectroscopy refers to spectroscopic techniques that measure the absorption of radiation, as a function of frequency or wavelength, due to its interaction with a sample. The sample absorbs energy, i.e., photons, from the radiating field. The intensity of the absorption varies as a function of frequency, and this variation is the absorption spectrum. Absorption spectroscopy is performed across the electromagnetic spectrum.

What instrument measures the purity of Argon gas?
An argon gas analyzer measures the purity of Argon gas. The analyzer can be used to determine the actual content of Argon gas in a specific sample.
What is the principle of a texture analyzer?
A texture analyzer measures the physical properties of a material's texture by applying controlled force and deformation to the sample. It records data such as hardness, chewiness, and elasticity to quantify the material's texture characteristics. This information is useful for quality control, product development, and research in industries like food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.
What happens if we sample the signal at sampling frequency nearer to signal frequency?
If you sample at more than the Nyquist frequency (one half the signal frequency) you introduce an aliasing distortion, seen as sub harmonics.
What is a particle size analyzer?
A particle size analyzer is a scientific device which measures the size of any grains or particles found in a given sample that is taken to be measured.A particle size analyzer is a piece of scientific equipment. It checks for size, shape, concentration and distribution of a specific particle in an item. On basis of the different principles being used, a common type is the "laser diffraction particle size analyzer."

Relative frequency formula?
Probability of event = relative frequency = f/nf is the frequency of the event occurence in a sample of n observances.
What is the minimum sample rate required to to record a frequency of 20 kHz?
According to the Nyquist theorem, a sample rate of double the frequency is required to record it, so 40 kHz .
Does the size of a sample affect the values of the frequency table?
Yes. If the sample is a random drawing from the population, then as the size increases, the relative frequency of each interval from the sample should be a better estimate of the relative frequency in the population. Now, in practical terms, increasing a small sample will have a larger effect than increasing a large sample. For example, increasing a sample from 10 to 100 will have a larger effect than increasing a sample from 1000 to 10,000. The one exception to this, that I can think of, is if the focus of the study is on a very rare occurrence.
Which value is larger in frequency?
The value with the higher frequency is the one that occurs more often in a dataset or sample population.
How ir spectrum compound recorded?
An IR spectrum of a compound is recorded by passing infrared radiation through a sample of the compound and measuring the absorption of different wavelengths by the sample. The resulting spectrum displays peaks and troughs corresponding to different functional groups present in the compound, which provides information about its structure and composition.
