In the singing rod demonstration, Mr. H holds a 2.13-m length of aluminum rod in the exact center. With rosin on his fingers, he slides his sticky fingers back and forth over the rod until it begins to sing out with a very pure tone. Assuming waves travel at speeds of 6320 m/s within the aluminum and that the standing wave pattern is characteristic of one-half wavelength between the rod's ends, determine the frequency of the sound.
A student attaches a f = 3.5 kHz oscillator to one end of a metal rail of length L = 19 m. The student turns on the oscillator and uses a piezoelectric gauge at the other end to measure that the resulting sound wave takes t = 0.0062 s to travel the length of the rail. What is the speed of the wave in the rail, in meters per second?
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.

In an experiment on standing waves, a string 59 cm long is attached to the prong of an electrically driven tuning fork that oscillates perpendicular to the length of the string at a frequency of 60 Hz. The mass of the string is 0.062 kg. What tension must the string be under (weights are attached to the other end) if it is to oscillate in four loops?

A stereo speaker is placed between two observers who are 38 m apart, along the line connecting them. If one observer records an intensity level of 55 dB, and the other records an intensity level of 81 dB, how far is the speaker from each observer?
For a string stretched between two supports, two successive standing-wave frequencies are 525 Hz and 630 Hz. There are other standing-wave frequencies lower than 525 Hz and higher than 630 Hz. If the speed of transverse waves on the string is 384 m/s, what is the length of the string? Assume that the mass of the wire is small enough for its effect on the tension in the wire to be ignored.
