Hard

(Originais Teachy 2025) - Question Hard of Physics

In a physics lab, two identical vinyl wires are secured at both ends and stretched so that the first wire vibrates in the fifth harmonic while the second wire vibrates in the third harmonic. Given that the length of the first wire is 1.20 metres, calculate the required length of the second wire so that both strings can resonate in their respective harmonics under the same conditions of tension and linear density.
a.
1.20 metres
b.
0.90 metres
c.
0.80 metres
d.
0.60 metres
e.
The length of the second string should be 0.72 metres.
