Answer: The frequency at which the string will create a standing wave be with three loops is 8.6 Hz
Explanation: The speed of the of the wave, v = 12.9 m/s
The number of loops of the standing wave = 3 loops
The length of the string = 2.00 m
Given that one loo = half of the wavelength, we have;
Three loops = 3 × half = One and half wavelength = 1.5·λ
The frequency of a wave = f = v/λ
Therefore, we have;
The frequency, f = 12.9/1.5 = 8.6 Hz
The frequency at which the string will create a standing wave be with three loops = 8.6 Hz.
