Unless indicated otherwise, assume the speed of sound in air to be v = 344 m/s. A pipe closed at both ends can have standing wav

es inside of it, but you normally don’t hear them because little of the sound can get out. But you can hear them if you are inside the pipe, such as someone singing in the shower. (a) Show that the wavelengths of standing waves in a pipe of length L that is closed at both ends are λn=2L/n and the frequencies are given by fn=nv/2L=nf1, where n=1,2,3,… (b) Modeling it as a pipe, find the frequency of the fundamental and the first two overtones for a shower 2.50 m tall. Are these frequencies audible?

Answer:

68.8 Hz

137.6 Hz, 206.4 Hz

Explanation:

L = Length of tube = 2.5 m

v = Velocity of sound in air = 344 m/s

Distance between nodes is given by

L=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}+m\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\lambda(n+1)}{2}=L\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{2L}{n+1}

Where n = 0, 1, 2, 3, ...

Making n+1 = n

\lambda=\dfrac{2L}{n}

where n = 1, 2, 3 .....

For fundamental frequency n = 1

\lambda=\dfrac{2\times 2.5}{1}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=5\ m

Frequency is given by

f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\Rightarrow f=\dfrac{344}{5}\\\Rightarrow f=68.8\ Hz

The fundamental frequency is 68.8 Hz

First overtone

2f=2\times 68.8=137.6\ Hz

Second overtone

3f=3\times 68.8=206.4\ Hz

The overtones are 137.6 Hz, 206.4 Hz

A ball dropped from a window strikes the ground 2.76 seconds later. How high is the window above the ground
sweet [91]

Answer:

37.33m

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion

S = ut + 1/2gt^2

Time t = 2.76secs

g = 9.8m/s^2

S = 0 + 1/2(9.8)(2.76)^2

S = 4.9*7.6176

S = 37.33

Hence the window is 37.33m above the ground
