- Some studies suggest that the upper frequency limit of hearing is determined by the diameter of the eardrum. The wavelength of the sound wave and the diameter of the eardrum are approximately equal at this upper limit. If the relationship holds exactly, what is the diameter of the eardrum of a person capable of hearing 20 000 Hz? (Assume a body temperature of 37.0C.)arrow_forwardA 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?arrow_forwardWhat is the length of a closed organ pipe with a fundamental frequency of 24Hz?

He notices that the sound coming from a resonance tube gets noticeably louder at the lengths 85.5 cm and 119.8 cm but at not any lengths between. Using these values, calculate ΔL. Using ΔL, calculate wavelength λ. Finally, calculate the speed of sound.arrow_forward
