A tight guitar string has a frequency of 540 Hz as its third harmonic what will be its fundamental frequency if it is fingered at a length of only 60 percent of its original length?

normal fundamental- 180 Hz
(open- open) =
540 Hz at 3rd- f at 3rd= 3f' 540 =180
it's wavelength= v/f= 343/180= 1.9
L= 3/2 (wavelength)= 2.85
60% of this = 1.71= new wavelength
v= f x wavelength
343/ 1.71= 200 Hz

If you triple the frequency of a vibrating object what will happen to its period?
There are two basic characteristics of harmonic motion: amplitude and frequency. Frequency can be looked at in a couple of ways. One is the number of cycles in a given unit of time (like cycles per second), and the other is the length of time it takes for one complete cycle of the motion, the period (like seconds per cycle). As the frequency increases, the time it takes for one cycle decreases. If there are more cycles per unit time, then it will take less time per cycle of the motion. That's an important concept. The two are inversely proportional. For a given motion, if its frequency doubles, then it takes half as long for one of the cycles to occur. The period is cut in half because the frequency had doubled. Following that logic, if the frequency of a harmonic motion is tripled, the period will be one third the period of the original motion.
What do you mean fundamental?
When you say fundamental, you usually mean primary or serving as a basis for supporting existance. Fundamental might also be defined as original or a generating source.
If you triple thr frequency of a vibrating object what will happen to its period?
frequency is the inverse of time: 1/f=t therefore if you increase frequency by 3 the time (or cycle) will be 1/3
What happens to the wavelength if the frequency is doubled?
If the frequency is doubled then the wave length and period will be halved because in the same time that the original wave occurred, you will now see 2 waves. .here is NO change in its its speed.
What are the fundamental quantities of measurement and their basic unit?
Fundamental Quantities (basic unit, abbreviation)Length (meter, m)Mass (kilogram, kg)Time (second, s)Electric current (ampere, A)Thermodynamic temperature (kelvin, K)Amount of substance (mole, mol)Luminous intensity (candela, cd)Another AnswerSI doesn't use the terms 'fundamental' or 'basic', The original answer lists SI BASE UNITS, not 'fundamental' units.
What is harmonic imaging?
The article in the related link describes how harmonic imaging is used in ultrasound devices. Basically, you transmit at one frequency, but listen for one of the harmonic frequencies (a whole-number multiple of the original frequency: according to the article, usually the 2nd harmonic, which is double the original frequency - so if the original frequency is 20,000 Hz, then you are listening in the 40,000 Hz range)
How does the frequency of a wave change when the period of the wave is double?
Double the original period ==> 1/2 of the original frequency

What are synonyms for original?
primary, elementary, initial, primitive, fundamental
What is cumalative frequency?
cumulative frequency is a type of thing that you times with the original number to get a new one.

What is the measurement unit of sound?
frequency or velocity of sound.add. One measures the intensity (loudness) of sound in decibels dB.Harmonic Distortion is a measure of the frequencies in the sound complex other than the fundamental or original notes.
What is a word similar in meaning to primordial?
Earliest, basic, fundamental, primal, original...
If a source of sound waves is rapidly approaching a person the sound heard by the person appears to have?
a frequency higher then the original frequency...
What do you mean by stationary or standing wave?
A standing wave is a wave produced by interference between two moving waves of the same frequency (usually an original wave and its reflection) which does not move but continues to oscillate at the original frequency.
