When students perform Experiment, “Standing Waves on a String,”
they set up standing waves using a braided string attached to the (PAAS-PAMP) driven by the (PAMP). The resonant frequencies at which the standing wave is formed depend on the tension in the string and the linear mass density of the string. The Accessory Speaker ships with both an elastic cord and lightweight braided string; each has different resonant frequencies.
the lightweight, braided string that shipped with the Accessory Speaker was changed. Because the new string has a different linear mass density than the old string, the resonant frequencies of the string changed.
The linear mass density of the new lightweight, braided string is 2.2 g/m. Note, however, that sometimes the density will change due to manufacturing or sourcing variations, and the linear mass density should be verified.
