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

7. A car moving at 10m/s (about 22.4 mph) crashes into a barrier and stops in 0.25 m.
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

a) 0.05s

b) 4000N

Explanation:

a)When car is stopped its final velocity become zero

U- 10 m/s

V- 0 m/s

S - 0.25 m

t -?

S = (v+u)*t/2

0.25 =(10+0)*t/2

t = 0.05s

b) If we happened to calculate the avarage force we have to consider about acceleration

V= 0

U = 10

t = 0.05 s

a =?

V = U + at

0 = 10 -a * 0.05

a = 200 m/s2

F = m *a

= 20 * 200

= 4000N

If an ideal gas does not exist then why laws were stated?
mihalych1998 [28]
That is because it is impossible to create a law for the behavior of every single different gas, so creating laws for an ideal gas helps us understand the basic nature of gasses which might or might not differ slightly or a lot. By understanding how an ideal gas works, we can understand how a normal gas works.

Two in-phase loudspeakers, which emit sound in all directions, are sitting side by side. One of them is moved sideways by 4.0 mm
loris [4]

Answer:

4.4721m

Explanation:

#Use Pythagorean theorem to find the distance between the two speakers:

a^+b^2=c^2\\4^2+2^2=d^2\\\sqrt{20}\ mm=d

There are antinodes 1/4,1/2 and 3/4 of the distance between speakers.

The greatest antinode is 3/4-1/4=1/2

#Distance between consecutive antinodes is:

0.5\times \sqrt{20}=\lambda/2\\\\\lambda=4.4721m

Hence, the maximum possible wavelength of the sound waves is 4.4721m
