How far from the end of the string should you place your finger to play the note C The frequency of the guitar = nv/2L Here L is the length that is vibrating string Take n=1 ,for fundamental case In first case Full length vibrates Therefore L=20 cm = 0.2 m Therefore frequency 440=v/2*0.2 Therefore v=176 m/sec In second case let the length of the vibrating string=l 523=176/2l therefore l =0.168 m Therefore the finger should be placed at a distance 16.8 cm from one end of the string |
