If a standing wave has nodes spaced 50 cm apart on a string under tension, what would be the distance between nodes after doubling both the linear density μ of the string and its tension?
In a standing wave pattern on a string, what does n represent in the formula ?
When experimenting with interference patterns generated by two coherent light sources, which variable would critically examine whether the spacing of fringes is exclusively dependent on wavelength?
