A sonometer is a 1-meter long, box-shaped instrument with brass fittings, typically consisting of two bridges, a set of strings or wires, and tuning pegs.

A sonometer is used to study the properties of sound waves, vibrations, and tension.

It’s commonly used in physics experiments, musical instrument research, and educational settings to demonstrate concepts such as resonance, harmonics, and wave propagation.

A sonometer typically consists of:

– A wooden or metal box-shaped frame (1 meter long)
– Brass fittings, such as bridges and tuning pegs
– A set of strings or wires of varying thickness and tension
– Two bridges to divide the strings into segments of different lengths.
