Question

The frequency of a note produced by a stretched string is directly proportional to the square root of linear mass density of the string.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Nither
• D. Either

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

False

The frequency of note is given by on a stretched string:

$f=\frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }}$

$f\propto \sqrt{\frac{1}{\mu }}$

Hence the statement is false.
