A trombone player stands at the end zone (a = 0) of a football field and begins to play its fundamental tone. Assume the trombone is a half open tube that is 3 m long. How much would the trombone player have to move the slider in cm to play 25 Hz? Be sure you know how a trombone works!

4) You have a pipe that is closed at one end. In a 22.0 °C room, you find that two of the harmonics occur at 294 Hz and 490 Hz. a) What is the shortest possible length of this pipe? b) What would the fundamental frequency be if you opened the other end of the pipe?

You have an open-open pipe of adjustable length near a taut 60.0 cm, 5.0 gram guitar string which is under a tension of 300 N. You want to adjust the length of the tube so that when it produces a sound in its fundamental frequency, this sound is at the same frequency of the string’s vibration in its second harmonic. What should be the length of the pipe?

5. A guitar string with a linear density of 2.4g/m is stretched between supports that are 60cm apart.The string makes a standing wave pattern with three anti-nodes at a frequency of 440Hz. (a) What is thetension in the string? (b) What id the frequency of the fifth harmonic?

A "C" flute creates the note C4 when it is played at its resonance frequency,  that is 261 Hz on the evenly tempered scale.   Flute frequencies are changed by opening holes in its tube, creating a node at that hole and effectively shortening the 66 cm tube.  The flute and the guitar make a good instrumental combination, and for that they must be tuned together.  You have seen that a guitar's 6 strings are   usually tuned to   (E) 329.63 Hz E4 (B) 246.94 Hz B3 (G) 196.00 Hz G3 (D) 146.83 Hz D3 (A) 110.00 Hz A2 (E) 82.41 Hz E2   1.  Is there a way to alter the frequency of the flute so that it matches one of these open strings at resonance? Explain your answer. 2.  Given the length of its tube and the frequency of the flute sound, what is the speed of sound in air it has been made for? 3.  At what temperature would the air be in °C  to give this speed?  What is that in °F? 4.  At this temperature, what is the most probable speed of a nitrogen molecule in m/s?

A 0.717 gram guitar string is 0.629 m long. The string is under a tension of 73.9 N.(a) What are the fundamental frequency and the third harmonics frequency? (b)What are their wavelengths?

You want to create a standing sound wave in its 2nd overtone. Your smartphone can generate any frequency you want.  The only tube you have is 1.68m long.  You can either block one end or not; it’s up to you.  What frequency should you use?  Draw the representation of the standing wave.

World-renowned bluegrass musician, Frog Newton, has invited you to join his band. It is apparent that he is only looking for eye-candy on the stage, because you are only asked to play one note, the G# at a frequency of 415 Hz. You make your own instrument using a string that is 0.7 meters long and has a mass of 4 grams. Now you need to calculate the necessary tension on the string, And you will be ready to jam!   What is the wavelength of the first harmonic (also called the fundamental frequency) of standing wave created by the vibrating string m At what speed would a wave propagate on this string? m/s What is the linear density of the string? kg/m What is the tension needed to produce the G# note? N

World-renowned bluegrass musician, Frog Newton, has invited you to join his band. It is apparent that he is only looking for eye-candy on the stage, because you are only asked to play one note, the E at a frequency of 330 Hz. You make your own instrument using a string that is 1 meters long and has a mass of 3.5 grams. Now you need to calculate the necessary tension on the string, And you will be ready to jam! What is the tension needed to produce the E note?
