An aluminum rod, 1.00 m long, is held lightly in the middle. One end is struck head-on with a rubber mallet so that a longitudinal pulse—a sound wave—travels down the rod. The fundamental frequency of the longitudinal vibration is 1.10 kHz.
Calculate the speed of sound in aluminum from the information given in the problem.
A string of length 1.0 m is fixed at both ends. The string is plucked and a standing wave is set up that is vibrating at its fundamental mode. The traveling waves that make up the standing waves have a speed of 200 m/s. What is the frequency of the wave?
A 29.0 cm -long wire with a linear density of 30.0 g/m passes across the open end of an 82.0 cm -long open-closed tube of air. If the wire, which is fixed at both ends, vibrates at its fundamental frequency, the sound wave it generates excites the second vibrational mode of the tube of air. What is the tension in the wire? speed of sound v=340m/s.
