A 2 m long string fixed at both ends is set into vibrations in its first overtone. The wave speed on the string is 200 m s−1 and the amplitude is 0⋅5 cm. (a) Find the wavelength and the frequency. (b) Write the equation giving the displacement of different points as a function of time. Choose the X-axis along the string with the origin at one end and t = 0 at the instant when the point x = 50 cm has reached its maximum displacement.

Explanation:
Given, Length of String (L) = 2.0 m
Wave speed of the string in its first overtone (v) = 200
Amplitude (A) = 0.5 cm
(a) Wavelength and frequency of the string when it is vibrating in its First Overtone (n = 2)-
L =
= L = 2m
f = = 100 Hz
(b) The stationary wave equation is given by -
y =
=
=
