A string 1 m long, fixed at both ends, carries transverse waves with speed 200 m/s. The frequency of its second overtone is
A. 300 Hz
B. 100 Hz
C. 200 Hz
D. 400 Hz
A. 300 Hz
B. 100 Hz
C. 200 Hz
D. 400 Hz
Best answer
Answer: A. 300 Hz
Fundamental \(=\frac{v}{2L}=100\) Hz; second overtone = third harmonic \(=300\) Hz.
