- You are trying to tune the A on your piano and you have a 440Hz tuning fork. The string is still slightly out of tune. How can you tell? (Describe what you would hear and name for this phenomenon.)arrow_forwardAnswer the following step by step: A)The range of frequencies audible to humans is from about 20 Hz to 20kHz. Assuming that the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s, the wavelength of a 20 kHz sound is: a) 58 cm b) 1.8 cm c) 6860 km d) 400 km B) A 640 Hz tuning fork is placed on the open edge of a resonance tube of initial length L = 0 cm. Assume that the speed of sound is 330 m/s. As the tube becomes longer, successive whistles of maximum intensity (for example, from L1 to L3, or from L3 to L5, etc.) are heard at intervals L. What is the value L. Note: Be careful with the units a) 51.7 cm b) 194 cm c) 19.4 km d) 25.8 km e) 12.9 cm C) In a tube that has one end closed (the other open), with a fundamental frequency of 256 Hz, which of the following frequencies cannot produce resonance? a) 5.12 kHz b)There is no restriction to any frequency c) 19.7 kHz d) 768 Hz e) 1.28 kHzarrow_forwardIf the fundamental frequency of a tube is 784 Hz, and the speed of sound is 343 m/s, determine the length of the tube (in m) for each of the following cases. 1. the tube is closed at one end 2. the tube closed at both endsarrow_forward
- WT-2 A pipe closed at one end and open at the other has a length of 0.750m. Jiatai places a speaker producing a low sound frequency above the open end of the tube. He then increases the frequency slowly. The pipe is in air at sea level. a) Draw the possible standing wave patterns for the sound waves in the tube starting with the lowest frequency. lowest frequency fa fo fa highest open end L=0.750m closed end L%3D L= L= b) Below each pattern write the tube-length-to-wavelength relationship for each pattern. c) Write the general symbolic relationship for the frequency of the n" harmonic, fn. Specify the possible values for n. d) Put the known information into your equation and find the numerical value of the frequencies fa, f, fe, and få. e) Jiatai can hear frequencies up to 19,980HZ. What is the highest frequency of the highest harmonic that Jiatai can hear from this tube and what is the harmonic number n of that harmonic? Answers WT-1 a) L=/4, L=32J4, L=52/4, L=7/4 b) 0.166m WT-2 a)---…arrow_forwardIf a wind instrument, such as a tuba, has a fundamental frequency of 90.0 Hz, what are its first three overtones (in Hz)? It is closed at one end. (The overtones of a real tuba are more complex than this example, because it is a tapered tube.) first overtone Hzsecond overtone Hzthird overtone Hzarrow_forwardYou are designing an organ pipe that you wish to sound out an "A" note on the musical scale, which has a frequency of 440 Hz. The pipe will be open at both ends. What must the length of your pipe be in order for its "fundamental" tone to be an "A" at 440 Hz? Hint: first determine the wavelength of the sound wave in the pipe; then the frequency is related to this wavelength and to the speed of sound, which you can take to be 330 m/s in air at room temperature. What will be the frequency of the first overtone of this pipe? (Hint: it is an "A" as well!)arrow_forward
