Question

A string has its 4th harmonic at 31.5 Hz. What is the fundamental frequency?

Answer 1

Given data

*The given 4th harmonic frequency is 31.5 Hz

The fundamental frequency is calculated as

$\begin{gathered} f_n=\frac{31.5}{4} \\ =7.875\text{ Hz} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the fundamental frequency is 7.875 Hz
