3
Doppler Effect When we think of a wave on a string most people would think of something like this: Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015 www.pixshark.com
4
Doppler Effect While that is a possibility there are so many more options, some of which can even take place at the same time. For example, we could fit half a wavelength on the string. Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015 www.blogs.elcorreo.com
5
Doppler Effect Or, we could fit a whole wavelength on the string. Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015 www.blogs.elcorreo.com
6
Doppler Effect Or, we could fit one and a half wavelengths on the string. Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015 www.blogs.elcorreo.com
7
Doppler Effect And so on and so on. But every wavelength that fits on the string must be a multiple of the strings length. Since both ends are fixed there is no way you could fit a quarter wavelength on the string, the fixed end would have to disconnect. Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015
8
Doppler Effect So lets take a closer look at the anatomy of a wave on a string. First a review: Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015

Doppler Effect So lets take a closer look at the anatomy of a wave on a string. On to the new stuff: Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015
10
Doppler Effect Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015 A node is a point of maximum displacement. An anti-node is a fixed point. The number of nodes and anti-nodes is directly related to the number of wavelengths on the string.
11
Doppler Effect Each wave that can fit on the string is called a mode. Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015
12
Doppler Effect They are also known as harmonics, especially when dealing with sound. Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015
13
Doppler Effect After all, stringed instruments simply make sound by vibrating strings at a pleasant frequency. Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015 www.mylespaul.com
14
Doppler Effect Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015 Take a second and see if you can create a formula for how wavelengths shown below are related to the length of the string.

Doppler Effect Example #1: particular string has a mass of 6 kilograms and is 24 meters long. If the fundamental harmonic frequency is measured to be 4.7 cyc/sec, what is the tension on the string. Created by Joshua Toebbe NOHS 2015
