A string is stretched between fixed points separated by \(75.0~\text{cm}.\) It is observed to have resonant frequencies of \(420~\text{Hz}\) and \(315~\text{Hz}\). There are no other resonant frequencies between these two. The lowest resonant frequency for these strings is:
1. \(155~\text{Hz}\) 2. \(205~\text{Hz}\)
3. \(10.5~\text{Hz}\) 4. \(105~\text{Hz}\)

1. v=v1+v2+v3

2. v=v1+v2+v3

3. 1v=1v1+1v2+1v3

4. 1v=1v1+1v2+1v3
