Q. Transverse waves are produced in a stretched wire. Both ends of the string are fixed. Let us compare between second overtone mode (in numerator) and fifth harmonic mode (in denominator). match the following two columns.

λ_{1}, λ_{2}, λ_{3}

are the wavelength of the waves giving resonance to the fundamental, first and second overtone modes respectively in a string fixed at both ends. The ratio of the wavelengths

λ_{1} : λ_{2} : λ_{3}

Q. A string of length

10 cm

fixed at one end and free at another end, has its fundamental frequency half that of second overtone for another string fixed at both ends. What will be the length of string fixed at both ends?
(Assume velocity of wave in both strings is same)
