Question: A standing wave pattern is created on a string with mass density = 3 1 0 - 4 kg / m . A wave generator

A standing wave pattern is created on a string with mass density =310-4 kg/m. A wave generator with frequency f =62 Hz is attached to one end of the string and the other end goes over a pulley and is connected to a mass (ignore the weight of the string between the pulley and mass). The distance between the generator and pulley is L =0.66 m. Initially the 3rd harmonic wave pattern is formed.
Now the hanging mass is adjusted to create the 2nd harmonic. The frequency is held fixed at f =62 Hz.
Keeping the frequency fixed at f =62 Hz, what is the maximum mass that can be used to still create a coherent standing wave pattern?
