Answer:
The new frequency (F₂ ) will be related to the old frequency by a factor of one (1)
Explanation:
Fundamental frequency = wave velocity/2L
where;
L is the length of the stretched rubber
Wave velocity = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}[/tex]
Frequency (F₁) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}}{2*L}[/tex]
To obtain the new frequency with respect to the old frequency, we consider the conditions stated in the question.
Given:
L₂ =2L₁ = 2L
T₂ = 2T₁ = 2T
(M/L)₂ = 0.5(M/L)₁ = 0.5(M/L)
F₂ = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{\frac{2T}{0.5(\frac{M}{L})}}}{4*L} = \frac{\sqrt{4(\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}})}{4*L} = \frac{2}{2} [\frac{\sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}}{2*L}] = F_1[/tex]
Therefore, the new frequency (F₂ ) will be related to the old frequency by a factor of one (1).
