Astring fixed at both ends has a length of 1m. with the frequency 0f 44khz (fourth overtone) standing waves are produced . which harmonics will be audible to humans?

The frequency of the nth-harmonic is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency of the string:

where  is the fundamental frequency.

Here, we know the frequency of the 4th harmonic , therefore we can use it to find the fundamental frequency and the following overtones:




Since the hearing range of human ear goes from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, it means that only the first harmonic of 11 kHz will be audible to humans.
