In Figure OQ14.3, a sound wave of wavelength 0.8 m divides into two equal parts that recombine to interfere constructively, with the original difference between their path lengths being |r2 − r1| = 0.8 m. Rank the following situations according to the intensity of sound at the receiver from the highest to the lowest. Assume the tube walls absorb no sound energy. Give equal ranks to situations in which the intensity is equal. (a) From its original position, the sliding section is moved out by 0.1 m. (b) Next it slides out an additional 0.1 m. (c) It slides out still another 0.1 m. (d) It slides out 0.1 m more. Figure OQ14.3
Two identical loudspeakers 2.0 m apart are emitting 1800 Hz sound waves into a room where the speed of sound is 340 m/s. Is the point 4.0 m directlyin front of one of the speakers, perpendicular to the line joining the speakers, a point of maximum constructive interference, perfect destructive interference, or something in between?
Two loudspeakers placed 6 m apart are driven in phase by an audio oscillator whose frequency range is 950 Hz to 1350 Hz. A point P is located 5 m from one loudspeaker and 3.5 m from the other. The speed of sound is 350 m/s. The frequency produced by the oscillator, for which constructive interference of sound occurs at point P, is closest to what?
Two small speakers, 0.680 m apart, are facing in the same direction. They are driven by one 666 Hz oscillator and therefore emit identical sound waves in phase with one another at the respective points of origin. (The speed of sound waves in air is 343 m/s.) Two speakers are side by side, with one speaker on the left and one on the right. The speakers are separated by a distance d and emit sound waves in the same direction. A man stands directly in front of the speaker on the right but a distance x away from the right speaker. (a) A listener wishes to stand in front of one of the speakers, at the closest point (i.e., smallest x-value) where intensity is at a relative maximum. At what distance x from the nearest speaker should she position herself? (Enter your answer in m.) m (b) The listener now wishes to stand at the closest point along that line where intensity is at a relative minimum. At what distance x should she position herself now? (Enter your answer in m.) m
Two in-phase loudspeakers that emit sound with the same frequency are placed along a wall and are separated by a distance of 5.00 m. A person is standing 12.0 m away from the wall, equidistant from the loudspeakers. When the person moves 1.00 m parallel to the wall, she experiencesdestructive interference for the first time. What is the frequency of the sound? The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.
Two in-phase loudspeakers are placed 6.00 m apart along one wall of a room. They emit sound with a frequency of 512Hz.

How far is the microphone from the wall at that point? The speed of sound in air is 330 m/s. a) 0.203 m b) 0.282 m c) 0.664 m d) 0.138 m 0.141 m
Two loudspeakers, placed on opposite walls of a 10m long room, emit pure sine waves at f= 170 Hz coherently. If we were exactly in the middle of the room, where the interference of waves is constructive, what is the shortest distance we should travel towards one of the speakers so that the waves cancel out completely?" Assume that the speed of sound at air is 340 m/s.
