Q2A why is the answer 110Hz
Do not get octaves bit.
I looked at the textbook , cant seem to find a mention of octaves, can someone help me on this

The following 2 links may help:

I looked at the links, and what i can gather is...
scale position touched
fraction of string length
harmonic number
interval above open string
is the following in order
double octave 1/4 4 double octave
so if the q says usually instrument has 440Hz, but this instrument is in 1st harmonic fq but 2 octaves down,
But if its in 1st harmonic, and double octave = 4 harmonic number = 440Hz simple maths and divide by 4 = 110Hz
If my understanding is correct, it depends where you pluck the string scale touched, that produces an octave.
Think octave is an interval of some kind - very wordy text.
Is there anything to add on here? - thanks for showing me a source.
besides this, i am confused by a thing that is with a progressive wave:
in progressive waves, all points have the same amplitude (in turn), - unsure
in stationary waves, they do not - i get this nodes and antinodes

another thing that bugged me was

Q3B and C is what i need help with - it is waves topic
MS here:
https://pmt.physicsandmathstutor.com...Waves%20MS.pdf
3b) half wavelength = 0.21m - got it.
but i dont understand 2(d2 - d1) = 2
3c) q just wants 2 know how 2 measure speed of sound from instrument device of some sorts
ms: Continue to move tube until tube is at greatest distance or repeat readings for decreasing
distance back to starting point.
confused here

hopefully link is fullyhere now
oh damn it can now. by the way i appreciate your support on my understandings of physics.

Go to the following links:
Transverse progressive wave
http://physics.bu.edu/~duffy/HTML5/wave.html
Transverse stationary wave
http://physics.bu.edu/~duffy/HTML5/transverse_standing_wave.html
You can press on the n = 1, n = 2, etc to look at the various amplitude at different positions.
In a progressive wave, energy is transported outward from the source and “it would affect all the particles evenly”, so all the particles would have the same amplitude.

The “2” is to account for when d2 increases by x m, the movable tube increases the length by 2x: upper horizontal section increases by x m and lower horizontal section increases by x m.

There is a limit that the movable tube can extend.
I thought it is “obvious” that you need to repeat the experiment to ensure the “reproducibility” of your experimental result.
