The lowest frequency in the audible range is 20 Hz. What are the lengths of (a) the shortest open-open tube and (b) the shortest open-closed tube needed to produce this frequency?
The tube has one end closed and is filled with water so that the air column inside has a length of 39.9 cm. A speaker with a constant frequency sound is on top of the tube and generates the second resonance (n = 3). Using the ECF you calculated in the previous question determine the wavelength (λ) of the speaker sound.
A Helmholtz resonator with a neck length of 3.1 cm and a diameter of 4.09 cm is installed on the side of the tube. If the volume of the resonator is 1.3 dm3, what is the specific frequency of the resonator that it attenuates? Give the answer with integer precision. Use a speed of 340 m / s.
