Explanation / Answer

Given , L = 3.95 m, m= 238 g = 0.238 kg, T= 53.4 N,

Amplitude (A) = 6.03 mm , P= 68.6 W

Mass per unit length () = m/L = 0.238/3.95 = 0.06 kg/m

Velocity of wave (v) = (T/) = (53.4/0.06) = 29.77 m/s

Using ,

= 2f and

P = (2A2v)/2

So,

P = (42f2A2v)/2

Substituting the values ,

f2 = 2P / (42A2v)

f^2 = 2*68.6/0.06*4*^2*(6.03*10^-3)^2*29.77

f^2 = 53508.349

f = 231.32 Hz

Thus, the frequency is 231.32 Hz
