A speaker plays a pure single-frequency tone into the apparatus shown below. The sound takes two paths to an opening where a receiver is positioned. One path is fixed in length, while the other can be adjusted. Sliding section Receiver Speaken Suppose that the receiver detects constructive interference at a particular instant. The speaker is producing sound with a frequency of 794 Hz, and that sound travels through the tubes at 343 m/s. By what minimum amount (in cm) should the adjustable path length be ncreased for the receiver to detect destructive interference?

Two loudspeakers are vibrating in phase. They are set up as in the figure, and point C is located as shown there. The speed of sound is 320 m/s. The speakers play the same tone. What is the smallest frequency that will produce destructive interference at point C?
Please help: Moe, Larry, and Curly stand in a line with a spacing of d = 0.800 m. Larry is 3.00 m in front of a pair of stereo speakers 0.800 m apart, as shown in the figure. The speakers produce a single-frequency tone, vibrating in phase with each other. What are the two lowest frequencies that allow Larry to hear a loud tone while Moe and Curly hear very little? Express your answers using two significant figures separated by a comma.

The acoustical system shown in the figure below is driven by a speaker emitting sound of frequency 859 Hz. (Use v = 343 m/s.) Sliding section Speaker Receiver Ⓡ (a) If constructive interference occurs at a particular instant, by what minimum amount should the path length in the upper U-shaped tube be increased so that destructive interference occurs instead? m (b) What minimum increase in the original length of the upper tube will again result in constructive interference? m
Part A Two small stereo speakers A and B that are 1.50 m apart are sending out sound of wavelength 34.0 cm in all directions and all in phase.

The two sources S1 and S2 shown in Fig. emit waves ofthe same wavelength λ and are in phase with each other. Suppose S1 isa weaker source, so that the waves emitted by S1 have half the amplitude of the waves emitted by S2. How would this affect the positions of the antinodal lines and nodal lines? Would there be total reinforcement at points on the antinodal curves? Would there be total cancellation at points on the nodal curves? Explain your answers.
