In about 1657, Otto von Guericke, inventor of the air pump, evacuated a sphere made of two brass hemispheres (Fig. P15.62). Two teams of eight horses each could pull the hemispheres apart only on some trials and then with greatest difficulty, with the resulting sound likened to a cannon firing. Find the force F required to pull the thin-walled evacuated hemispheres apart in terms of R, the radius of the hemispheres; P, the pressure inside the hemispheres; and atmospheric pressure P0. Figure P15.62
A copper block is suspended from a wire, as in part 1 of the drawing. A container of mercury is then raised up around the block, as in part 2, so that 45.0% of the block’s volume is submerged in the mercury. The density of copper is 8890 kg/m3, and that of mercury is 13 600 kg/m3. Find the ratio of the fundamental frequency of the wire in part 2 to the fundamental frequency in part 1.

The speed of sound in air is 331 m/s at atmospheric pressure and 0 Celsius. Suppose you put a electronic pinger in an air-tight glass jar and change the pressure of the air inside by a factor 1.6, while the volume, composition and temperature of the air remain the same. What speed would you measure for the sound inside the jar? Give your answer in m/s.
A flute can be modeled as an open-open tube. My flute is L = 0.5969 m from mouthpiece (one open end) and the end (the other open end).

Calculate the frequency and wavelength of this mode
Sound exerts a pressure on the human ear. This pressure P, measured in dynes per square centimeter, increases as the loudness of the sound increases. As the loudness D, measured in decibels, increases, the pressure increases by 12.2% per decibel. Furthermore, a sound of loudness 97 decibels produces a pressure of 15 dynes per square centimeter. Find P(0) and use it to give a formula for P = P(D) in this situation.a) P(0) = 0.0002122; P(D) = 0.0002122(1.122)^Db) P(0) = 0.0002122; P(D) = 0.0002122(2.122)^Dc) P(0) = 0.0002122; P(D) = 0.0002122(2.252)^Dd) P(0) = 0.0002122; P(D) = 0.0002122(3.124)^D
