Question: A sound wave of the form travels at 343 m/s through air in a long horizontal tube. At one constant, air molecule Aat x =2.00m is at its maximum positive displacement of 6Nm and air molecule B at x =2.070 m is at a positive displacement of 2N/m . All the molecule between A and B are at intermediate displacement. What is the frequency of the wave?
Question: The pressure in a traveling sound wave is given by the equation
.
Find the (a) Pressure amplitude, (b) Frequency, (c) Wavelength, and (d) Speed of the wave
In Fig. 17-45, sound wavesand, both of wavelength, are initially in phase and traveling rightward, as indicated by the two rays. Wave Ais reflected from four surfaces but ends up traveling in its original direction. What multiple of wavelengthis the smallest value of distancein the figure that puts Aand Bexactly out of phase with each other after the reflections?

Figure 17-48 shows an air-filled, acoustic interferometer, used to demonstrate the interference of sound waves. Sound source Sis an oscillating diaphragm; Dis a sound detector, such as the ear or a microphone. Pathcan be varied in length, but pathis fixed. At D, the sound wave coming along pathinterferes with that coming along path. In one demonstration, the sound intensity at Dhas a minimum value of 100 units at one position of the movable arm and continuously climbs to a maximum value of 900 units when that arm is shifted by . Find (a) the frequency of the sound emitted by the source and (b) the ratio of the amplitude at Dof the wave to that of the wave. (c) How can it happen that these waves have different amplitudes, considering that they originate at the same source?

Pipe A, which is long and open at both ends, oscillates at its third lowest harmonic frequency. It is filled with air for which the speed of sound is. Pipe, which is closed at one end, oscillates at its second lowest harmonic frequency. This frequency ofhappens to match the frequency of. Anextend along the interior of, withat the closed end. (a) How many nodes are along that axis? What is the (b) smallest and (c) second smallest value oflocating those nodes? (d) What is the fundamental frequency of?
