The document outlines an experiment using a sonometer to determine the fundamental frequency of a stretched string fixed at both ends. It details the apparatus required, the basic theory behind the experiment, the procedure to follow, and the sources of error in measurements. Results from the experiment indicate a frequency of approximately 99.449 Hz for the fundamental mode of vibration.
