With the specified
ratios
, the two factors in the modal
amplitude
become
sin
(
nπ
/5
)
and
sin
(
nπ
/14
)
. Hence
a
normal mode
is unexcited precisely when one of these factors is zero:
n
∈
5
N
∪
14
N
.
(1)
That includes all multiples of five or fourteen, with multiples of seventy counted once. The mode
n
=
0
is not
a
fixed-end
string
mode.
