A long tube contains air pressure of 1 atm. and temp of 77degrees C. the tube is open at one end, and closed by a movable piston on the other end. A tunning fork is near the open end and is vibrating at a frequency of 500Hz. Reasonance is produced when the piston is set at 18, 55.5, and 93 cm. From these measurements what is the velocity of sound in air at 77degC. I'm getting 375m/s and I don't think it is right because I was a little confused on my process. I appreciate your help with this problem. Thank you.
