Guitar String one of the 63.5-cm-Iong strings of an ordinary guitar is tuned to produce the note

Question:

Guitar String one of the 63.5-cm-Iong strings of an ordinary guitar is tuned to produce the note B3 (frequency 245 Hz) when vibrating in its fundamental mode.
(a) Find the speed of transverse waves on this string.
(b) If the tension in this string is increased by 1.0%, what will be the new fundamental frequency of the string?
(c) If the speed of sound in the surrounding air is 344 m/s, find the frequency and wavelength of the sound wave produced in the air by the vibration of the B3 string. How do these compare to the frequency and wavelength of the standing wave on the string?
