Question 19 NECO • 2021 • PHYSICS • objective

A string of length \(0.60\,\text{m}\) is fixed at both ends. Its fundamental frequency at an initial tension \(T\) is \(40\,\text{Hz}\). When the tension is increased by 20 % (the new tension is \(12\,\text{N}\)), the frequency of the third harmonic is measured to be \(132\,\text{Hz}\). Determine the linear mass density \(\mu\) of the string in \(\text{kg·m}^{-1}\) (give your answer to three significant figures).
