Question

What are the harmonics present in a stretched string ?

Answer 1

Harmonics are known as most vibrating objects that have more than one resonant frequency and those used in musical instruments typically vibrate at harmonics of the fundamental. A harmonic can also be defined as an integer (whole number) multiple of the fundamental frequency and in a strecthed string Resonances in a wave medium (like on a string or in the air, for sound) are standing waves; they are analogous to the resonant oscillation of a mass and spring. Unlike the mass and spring which has only a single resonant frequency, a stretched string has many frequencies that are resonant.

Answer 2

Hie

The answer to your question is that all the harmonics whether even or odd, both are present in the vibrations of a stretched string.

There is a complete research relating to that where using mathematical expressions and formulas, this was proven that even and odd harmonics are present in a stretched string in between two rigid supports.
