String Vibration Formula:

Parameter
Natural frequency of a string under a tension T with both ends fixed and a uniform load w per unit length including own weight  [f]
$$f=\frac { { K }_{ n } }{ 2\pi } \sqrt { \frac { Tg }{ w{ l }^{ 2 } } } $$

Symbol Parameter
Kn A constant where n refers to the mode of vibration.
Mode 1 - Kn = π
Mode 2 - Kn = 2π
Mode 3 - Kn = 3π
