91Ó°ÊÓ

The fundamental frequency of a pipe that is open at both ends is 524 Hz. (a) How long is this pipe? If one end is now closed, find (b) the wavelength and (c) the frequency of the new fundamental.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a)the length of the pipe is0.328″¾

b) The wavelength is 1.312″¾

c) The frequency of new fundamental is 262.2 H³ú.

Step by step solution

01

Concept of the frequency of the open and closed pipe.

The frequency of standing wave in an open pipe is f=nv2L and the frequency of standing wave in a closed pipe isf=vλ=nv4L where,f is The frequency of nth harmonic, v is the velocity of the wave,n,nth harmonic (n — 1, 2, 3, ... ) , L is the length of the pipe.

02

Calculate the length of the pipe Fundamental frequency is the first harmonic n=1

L=nv2f1=1×344​″¾/s2×524 H³ú=0.328″¾

Therefore, the length of the pipe is 0.328″¾.

03

Calculate the wavelength

The wavelength is given as

l=4Ln=4×0.328″¾1=1.312″¾

04

Calculate the frequency of new fundamental

The new fundamental frequency is given as

f=nv4L=1×344″¾/s4×0.328″¾=262.2 H³ú

The new fundamental frequency and wavelength are262.2 H³ú and 1.312″¾respectively.

Question: (a) By what factor must the sound intensity be increased to raise the sound intensity level by 13.0 dB? (b) Explain why you don’t need to know the original sound intensity.

Question:A 60.0-m-long brass rod is struck at one end. A person at the other end hears two sounds as a result of two longitudinal waves, one traveling in the metal rod and the other traveling in air. What is the time interval between the two sounds? (The speed of sound in air is 344 m/s; see Tables 11.1 and 12.1 for relevant information about brass.)

(a) If two sounds differ by 5.00 dB, find the ratio of the intensity of the louder sound to that of the softer one. (b) If one sound is 100 times as intense as another, by how much do they differ in sound intensity level (in decibels)? (c) If you increase the volume of your stereo so that the intensity doubles, by how much does the sound intensity level increase?
