Dear members,

 

How much tension is there on a yellow brass string which a sounding length
of 1688 millimeter? The other parameters are:

 

Note = FF

Hz = 41 (derived from a1 = 415)

Density in kg/m³ for yellow brass = 8536

String diameter = 1,15 millimeter

 

According to my calculations it should be 17,46 but I would like a second
opinion.

 

Sincerely,

 

Chris.
