A tube 1.20mlong is closed at one end. A stretched wire is placed near the open end. The wire is 0.330mlong and has a mass of 9.60g. It is fixed at both ends and oscillates in its fundamental mode. By resonance, it sets the air column in the tube into oscillation at that column’s fundamental frequency. Find (a) that frequency and (b) the tension in the wire.

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The fundamental frequency is 71.5Hz
  2. Tension in the wire is 64.8N

Step by step solution

01

The given data

  1. Length of the tube is, L = 1.20m.
  2. Length of the wire is, l = 0.33m.
  3. Mass of the wire is, m = 9.60g.

Understanding the concept of frequency

The frequency of the resonance with n = 1is called the fundamental frequency. It is given that the tube is closed at one end, so, we can use the formula for resonant frequency.

Formula:

The resonant frequency of the body in SHM,

f=nv4L …(1)

The velocity of the resonant frequency in SHM,

v=(Tμ)1/2 …(2)

Where, v is the velocity of sound, T is the tension in the wire, and d is the linear density

03

a) Calculation of the fundamental frequency

By resonance, the wire sets the air column in the tube at fundamental frequency. So, the fundamental frequency can be found using equation (1) for n = 1 as: where v = 343m/s is the velocity of sound.

f=343m/s4×1.20m=343m/s4.8m=71.458Hz□71.5Hz

Because of the resonance, the tube andthe wire have the same fundamental frequency 71.5Hz.

Hence, the value of the fundamental frequency is 71.5Hz

04

b) Calculation of the tension

Combining equations (1) and (2), we get the tension of the string as:

2lf=Tμ1/24l2f2=Tμ∵μ=ml

T=4l2f2×μT=4l2f2×mlT=4mlf2

Substitute all the value in the above equation.

T=4×9.60×10-3kg×0.33m×71.5Hz2T=64.8N

Hence, the value of the tension of the string is, 64.8N.

Ultrasound, which consists of sound waves with frequencies above the human audible range, can be used to produce an image of the interior of a human body. Moreover, ultrasound can be used to measure the speed of the blood in the body; it does so by comparing the frequency of the ultrasound sent into the body with the frequency of the ultrasound reflected back to the body’s surface by the blood. As the blood pulses, this detected frequency varies.

Suppose that an ultrasound image of the arm of a patient shows an artery that is angled atθ=20°to the ultrasound’s line of travel (Fig. 17-47). Suppose also that the frequency of the ultrasound reflected by the blood in the artery is increased by a maximum of5495 H³úfrom the original ultrasound frequency of5.000000 M±á³ú

(a) In Fig. 17-47, is the direction of the blood flow rightward or leftward?

(b) The speed of sound in the human arm is1540″¾/s. What is the maximum speed of the blood?

(c) If angleuwere greater, would the reflected frequency be greater or less?
