Question 239: Waves

Question

In Sonometer experiment, the frequency of a tuning fork used is 288 Hz . Harmonics will 'NOT' be produced at the frequency

Accepted Answer

Sonometer wire produces vibrations only at its natural harmonics :
$$ \begin{aligned} f_n & =n f_1 \ & =n 	imes 288 	ext { where, } n=1,2,3, \ldots \end{aligned} $$
$	herefore \quad$ Harmonics will not be produced at 844 Hz since it is not an integral multiple of 288 Hz .
