Problem

A string vibrates in its first normal mode with a frequency of 220 vibrations s−1220\,\text{vibrations s}^{-1}. The vibrating segment is 70.0 cm70.0\,\text{cm} long and has a mass of 1.20 g1.20\,\text{g}. (a) Find the tension in the string. (b) Determine the frequency of vibration when the string vibrates in three segments.
