Lin · Answer 1

528 x 2 is 1056.

As it is double the fundmental frequency it is a second harmonic

Lily Huffman · Answer 2

A. Second harmonic

This overtone is 1056 Hz, which is equal to 528 * 2 = 1056.

The first overtone = second harmonic = Fundamental frequency * 2, which in this case equals to 1056 Hz. Thus, the answer is A. second harmonic.
