Young's Modulus and Vibrating String Harmonics

I was wondering how Young's Modulus effects the resonant harmonics of a vibrating (string instrument) string. I know that the string's fundamental frequency is $$\frac{1}2 \times \text{Length} \times ...

What should the amplitude be when plotting 1-sided Amplitude Spectrum?

I have a continuous signal $x(t)$ such that $$x(t)=12\cos(6\pi t)+6\cos(24\pi t)+3\cos(30 \pi t)$$ and is asked to sketch a 1-sided Amplitude Spectrum of the signal $x(t)$ if sampled above the ...
