13-32. The distance between nodes on a standing wave pattern
on a certain string is 16 cm and there are 5 nodes between the ends of
the string. A single wave takes 1.2 s to travel to one end of the rope
and back again.
(a) What is the wavelength of the waves producing the pattern?
(b) How long is the rope?
(c) What is the speed of the waves?
(d) What is the frequency of the waves?
(e) What mode of vibration is occurring (i.e. which harmonic)?
ACCUMULATED SOLUTION
Correct
The distance between adjacent nodes is always:
(A) (1/2)l
(B) l
(C) 2l
