IP Two strings that are fixed at each end are identical, except that one is 0.600 cm longer than the other. Waves on these strings propagate with a speed of 31.2 m/s , and the fundamental frequency of the shorter string is 212 Hz .
Part A
What beat frequency is produced if each string is vibrating with its fundamental frequency?
Part B
Does the beat frequency in part (a) increase or decrease if the longer string is increased in length?
Part C
Repeat part (a), assuming that the longer string is 0.781 cm longer than the shorter string.
