Seiche

A seiche is an oscillating standing wave in a body of water. The term seiche pronounced saysh) can be understood by the sloshing of water back and forth in a swimming pool. The same phenomenon happens on a much larger scale in vast bodies of water including bays and lakes. A seizure can happen in any enclosed or semi-enclosed body of water.

A crude approximation at voice production is to consider the breathing passages and mouth to be a resonating tube closed at one end. (See Figure 17.30.) (a) What is the fundamental frequency if the tube is 0.240-m long, by taking air temperature to be 37.0°C? (b) What would this frequency become it the person replaced the air with helium? Assume the same temperature dependence for helium as for air. Figure 17.30 The throat and mouth form an air column closed at one end that resonates in response to vibrations in the voice box. The spectrum of overtones and their intensities vary with mouth shaping and tongue position to form different sounds. The voice box can be replaced with a mechanical vibrator, and understandable speech is still possible. Variations in basic shapes make different voices recognizable.
The ear canal resonates like a tube closed at one end. (See Figure 17.39.) If ear canals range in length from 1.80 to 2.60 cm in an average population, what is the range of fundamental resonant frequencies? Take air temperature to be 37.0°C, which is the same as body temperature. How does this result correlate with the intensity versus frequency graph (Figure 17.37 of the human ear? 17.39 The illustration shows the gross anatomy of the human ear. Figure 17.37 The shaded region represents frequencies and intensity levels found in normal conversational speech. The O-phon line represents the normal hearing threshold, while those at 40 and 60 represent thresholds for people with 40- and 60-phon hearing losses, respectively.
