A string on a musical instrument is $50 cm$ long and its fundamental frequency is $270 Hz$. If the desired frequency of $1000 Hz$ is to be produced, the required length of the string is .... $cm$

A

$13.5$

B

$2.7$

C

$5.4$

D

$10.3$

Solution

(a) $n \propto \frac{1}{l} \Rightarrow \frac{{{l_2}}}{{{l_1}}} = \frac{{{n_1}}}{{{n_2}}} $

$\Rightarrow {l_2} = {l_1}\left( {\frac{{{n_1}}}{{{n_2}}}} \right)$

$ = 50 \times \frac{{270}}{{1000}}$$ = 13.5\,cm$
