A crude approximation of voice production is to consider the breathing passages and mouth to be a resonating tube closed at one end. What is the fundamental frequency f1 if the tube is 0.240 m long, by taking air temperature to be 37.0°C? fi = Hz 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. f1,hydrogen Hz Question Credit: OpenStax College Physics

A 512-Hz tuning fork is struck and placed next to a tube with a movable piston, creating a tube with a variable length. The piston is slid down the pipe and resonance is reached when the piston is 115.50 cm from the open end. The next resonance is reached when the piston is 82.50 cm from the open end. (a) What is the speed of sound in the tube? (b) How far from the open end will the piston cause the next mode of resonance?
If a wind instrument, such as a tuba, has a fundamental frequency of 32.0 Hz, what are its first three overtones? It is closed at one end. (The overtones of a real tuba are more complex than this example, because it is a tapered tube.)
