Problem

Two strings A and B are stretched by the same tension of 50 N50\,\text{N}. String A has length 0.60 m0.60\,\text{m} and linear density 6×10−3 kg m−16\times10^{-3}\,\text{kg\,m}^{-1}, while string B has length 0.90 m0.90\,\text{m} and linear density 3×10−3 kg m−13\times10^{-3}\,\text{kg\,m}^{-1}. What is the ratio of the second harmonic frequency of string A to the third harmonic frequency of string B, f2Af3B\displaystyle \frac{f_{2A}}{f_{3B}}? (a) 1.00 (b) 0.50 (c) 0.71 (d) 1.41
