Mechanical Oscillations

Problem 4.26

A small body of mass mm is fixed to the middle of a stretched string of length 2l.2 l . In the equilibrium position the string tension is equal to T0T_{0}. Find the angular frequency of small oscillations of the body in the transverse direction. The mass of the string is negligible, the gravitational field is absent.

ω=2T0/ml\omega=\sqrt{2 T_{0} / m l}
