Two identical columns, open at both ends, are in separate rooms. In room A, the temperature is T = 20°C and in room B, the temperature is T = 25°C . A speaker is attached to the end of each tube, causing the tubes to resonate at the fundamental frequency. Is the frequency the same for both tubes? Which has the higher frequency?
The frequency separating audible waves and ultrasonic waves is considered to be 20 kHz. What wavelength in air at room temperature is associated with this frequency? (Assume the speed of sound to be 340 m/s.)
A crude approximation of voice production is to consider the breathing passages and mouth to be a resonating tube closed at one end. If the tube is 0.260 m long, by taking air temperature to be 37.0∘C? What would this frequency become if the person's breathing passage were filled with hydrogen instead of air? Assume the same temperature dependence for hydrogen as for air.
A bat emits a sound whose frequency is 81.8 kHz. The speed of sound in air at 20.0 oC is 343 m/s. However, the air temperature is 41.8 oC, so the speed of sound is not 343 m/s. Assume that air behaves like an ideal gas, and find the wavelength of the sound.
A pipe open at both ends has a fundamental frequency of 300 HZ when the temperature is 0C if the speed of sound in air is 331M/S at 0C what is the length of the pipe? What would be the frequency of the fundamental as the temperature increases to 20 C where the speed of sound is 343M/S?
A tube, closed at one end and open at the other, vibrates at room temperature of 20 Celsius with a fundamental frequency of 125 Hz. Which of the following frequencies cannot be a higher harmonic of this system? a. 635Hz b. 750Hz c. 1375Hz d. 375Hz e. 875Hz
An open-pipe resonator has a fundamental frequency of 250.0 Hz. By how much would its length have to be changed to get a fundamental frequency of 300.0 Hz? (Assume the speed of sound is 331m/s.)
A bat emits a sound whose frequency is 83.2 kHz83.2 kHz. The speed of sound in air at 20.0o C is 343 m/s. However, the air temperature is 40.5o C, so the speed of sound is not 343 m/s. Assume that air behaves like an ideal gas, and find the wavelength of the sound.
A tube that is open at both ends supports a standing wave with harmonics at 300 Hz and 400 Hz, with no harmonics between. What is the fundamentalfrequency of this tube?A. 50 Hz B. 100 Hz C. 150 Hz D. 200 Hz E. 300 Hz
A sound wave arriving at your ear is transferred to the fluid in the cochlea. If the intensity in the fluid is 0.410 times that in air and the frequency is the same as for the wave in air, what will be the ratio of the pressure amplitude of the wave in air to that in the fluid? Approximate the fluid as having the same values of density and speed of sound as water. Speed of sound in dry air (20.0°C, 1.00 atm) is 343 m/s, density of dry air (at STP) is 1.29 kg/m3, density of water is 1000 kg/m3, and speed of sound in water is 1493 m/s.
While chasing the person who released all the ping pong balls, an astronaut is screaming at 694Hz while moving towards the miscreant at 5.2 m/s. The prankster is fleeing, but at only 3.1 m/s. The air on the ISS is kept pretty close to standard pressure and temperature, so the speed of sound is 343 m/s. At what frequency does the prankster hear the yell? Do not actually solve the problem numerically or algebraically, just pick the one equation and define the relevant knowns and single unknown.
A violinist pulls a bow with a force of 0.6 N, at a speed of 0.5 m/s, playing an A tone, with a frequency of 440 Hz, which is perceived by a listener who is at a distance of 35 m with a volume of 60 dB. What is the efficiency of the conversion of mechanical energy into energy of sound?
