Two loudspeakers in a plane, 6.0 m apart, are playing the same frequency. If you stand 11.0 m in front of the plane of the speakers, centered between them, you hear a sound of maximum intensity. As you walk parallel to the plane of the speakers, staying 11.0 m in front of them, you first hear a minimum of sound intensity when you are directly in front of one of the speakers. What is the frequency of the sound? Assume a sound speed of 340 m/s. Express your answer in hertz. VE ΑΣΦ Ć ?

Two loudspeakers, placed on opposite walls of a 10m long room, emit pure sine waves at f= 170 Hz coherently. If we were exactly in the middle of the room, where the interference of waves is constructive, what is the shortest distance we should travel towards one of the speakers so that the waves cancel out completely?" Assume that the speed of sound at air is 340 m/s.
Two loudspeakers, placed on opposite walls of a 10m long room, emit pure sine waves with f = 170 Hz coherently. If we were exactly in the middle of the room, where the waves are interfering constructively, what is the shortest distance we should travel towards one of the speakers so that the waves cancel out completely? Assume the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s.
Two in-phase loudspeakers that emit sound with the same frequency are placed along a wall and are separated by a distance of 5.00 m. A person is standing 12.0 m away from the wall, equidistant from the loudspeakers. When the person moves 1.00 m parallel to the wall, she experiencesdestructive interference for the first time. What is the frequency of the sound? The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.

Two identical loudspeakers 2.0 m apart are emitting sound waves into a room where the speed of sound is 340 m/s. Abby is standing 5.0 m in front of one of the speakers, perpendicular to the line joining the speakers, and hears a maximum in the intensity of the sound. What is the lowest possible frequency of sound for which this is possible?
Two small speakers, 0.680 m apart, are facing in the same direction. They are driven by one 666 Hz oscillator and therefore emit identical sound waves in phase with one another at the respective points of origin. (The speed of sound waves in air is 343 m/s.) Two speakers are side by side, with one speaker on the left and one on the right. The speakers are separated by a distance d and emit sound waves in the same direction. A man stands directly in front of the speaker on the right but a distance x away from the right speaker.
