A point mass M is suspended in the middle of a string whose ends are fixed at the same level distance 2ℓ apart; the mass is distance h below the ends of the string. The total mass of the string is m ≪ M. (a) Find the speed of sound waves along the string and (b) the principal frequency of string vibrations on either side of the mass. (c) Do you think this is the smallest vibration frequency in the system? If not, describe the vibration mode and calculate the corresponding frequency

A simple pendulum may be described ideally as a point mass suspended by a massless string from some point about which it is allowed to swing back and forth in a place. A simple pendulum can be approximated by a small metal sphere which has a small radius and a large mass when compared relatively to the length and mass of the light string from which it is suspended. If a pendulum is set in motion so that is swings...
