A crude approximation of voice production is to consider the breathing passages and mouth to be a resonating tube closed at one end. If the tube is 0.260 m long, by taking air temperature to be 37.0∘C? 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.
If a human ear canal can be thought of as resembling an organ pipe, closed at one end, that resonates at a fundamental frequency of 3.0 x 103 Hz, what is the length of the canal? Use a normal body temperature of 37.0°C for your determination of the speed of sound in the canal.
At what temperature is the speed of sound in helium (ideal gas, = 1.67, atomic mass = 4.003 u) the same as its speed in oxygen gas at 5.40 oC? The speed of sound in oxygen at 5.40°C is 318 m/s.

- 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?
