Astring of length l= 1.2 m and mass m = 20g is under 400 n of tension, its two ends are fixed. a. how many nodes will you see in the 5th harmonic.
i. 4
ii. 5
iii. 6
iv. 7
v. none of the above.

(iii) 6

Explanation:

Part a)

Since it is given that both ends are fixed and it is vibrating in 5th harmonic

So here it will have 5 number of loops in it

so we can draw it in following way

each loop will have 1 antinode and two nodes which means number of nodes is one more than number of anti-nodes

So there are 5 loops which means it will have 5 antinodes

and hence there will be 6 nodes in it

so correct answer will be

(iii) 6

they should be similar or the same
