Recall that speed of a wave on a string is determined by the density and tension; \(v=(T/\mu )^{1/2}\) where \(T\) is the tension in the string in Newtons and \(\mu\) is the mass per length in kilogra...Recall that speed of a wave on a string is determined by the density and tension; \(v=(T/\mu )^{1/2}\) where \(T\) is the tension in the string in Newtons and \(\mu\) is the mass per length in kilograms per meter). Once the string density and tension are chosen the speed is fixed and the frequencies will depend on the wavelength as shown in the following table.
