Homework Statement
A string of length 3L and negligible mass is attached to two fixed supports at its ends.
The tension in the string is T.
(a) A particle of mass m is attached at a distance L from the left end of the string.
What is the period for small transverse oscillations of m?
(b) A second particle of mass m is connected to the string a distance L=2 from the
right end of the string. Each of the three string segments have a tension T. Describe how
the two masses will oscillate for each of the normal modes of oscillation, and determine the
frequency ω for each of the two normal modes.
Thank you so very much! =)
