a string attached to a 60.0 Hz vibr.ator creates a standing wave with 5 loops. What frequency would make 7 loops? (Unit = Hz)

Answer:

F=84.0 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation f= n (v/2L), frequency equals number of loops times velocity over 2 times the length, in order to get 60.0 Hz of frequency from 5 loops, v/2L would have to equal 12. (12*5=60) v/2L is constant, so to find the frequency of 7 loops you would times 7 by 12 to get 84.0.

Hope this helped! :)
