Name ____Sala Al-Maani_________ Speed of Sound Lab Observations and Data: Room Temp. ___20.8 ___◦C V Standard = _______ m/s Use V sound = 331.5 m/s + (0.6 m/s/°C • Temp air ) to find the “Standard” Speed of Sound Resonance Method Frequency ( f ) (Hz) Length (l) (m) Wavelength (λ) (m) Speed (V) (m/s) Percent Error (%) 512 480 426.6 384 341.3 320 288 256 Average Speed of Sound = Data Analysis: 1. Find the percent error between the two values for speed of sound. Use the room temperature value as the “standard” and your average “experimental” value. Percent error = | standard experimental standard | x 100 % error = _______________ % 2. Graph the frequency (y) versus the wavelength (x). You will have to enter the values for each variable. Draw a best fit straight line. Frequency 0 0 Wavelength
Analysis Questions 3. Use your data to write a relationship statement for wavelength and frequency. 4. Was the speed of sound the same (within reasonable error) for all tuning forks using just the resonance method? Use data to support your answer. 5. Was the speed of sound the same (within reasonable error) using both methods (resonance and air temperature)? Use data to justify your answer.
