Vibrating strings refer to the oscillation of a string fixed at both ends, which produces a range of frequencies based on its length, tension, and mass per unit length. The phenomenon of vibrating strings is central to understanding wave mechanics and is a practical example of how symmetric operators function in physics and mathematics.
Vibration, standing waves in a string. The fundamental and the first 5 overtones in the harmonic series. A vibration in a string is a wave. Resonance causes a vibrating string to produce a sound with constant frequency, i.e. constant pitch.
Definition. Vibrations of strings refer to the oscillatory motion of a string fixed at both ends, resulting in the production of sound waves and various modes of vibration.

A particular quantum vibration mode of the closed string describes a graviton, the quantum of the gravitational field. A particular quantum vibration of an open string describes a photon, the quantum of the electromagnetic field. It is the magic of quan-tization that makes these results possible.
17.9: Vibrating String. Page ID. Jeremy Tatum. University of Victoria. It is possible that the three modes of vibration of the three masses in Section 17.8 reminded you of the fundamental and first two harmonic vibrations of a stretched string – and it is quite proper that it did.
Theory Of Vibrating Strings. To obtain insight into the more precise behavior of a plucked vibrating string, it is helpful to consider the traveling wave-based theory of plucked string vibrations.
