A barrel organ is shown in Figure P18.38. Such organs are much smaller than traditional organs, allowing them to fit in smaller spaces and even allowing them to be portable. Use the photo to estimate the range in fundamental frequencies produced by the organ pipes in such an instrument. Assume the pipes are open at both ends. How does that range compare to a piano whose strings range in fundamental frequency from 21.7 Hz to 4186.0 Hz? FIGURE P18.38
23. An air column in a glass tube is open at one end and closed at the other by a movable piston. The air in the tube is warmed above room temperature, and a 384-Hz tuning fork is held at the open end. Resonance is heard when the piston is at a distance d1 = 22.8 cm from the open end and again when it is at a distance d2= 68.3 cm from the open end. (a) What speed of sound is implied by these data? (b) How far from the open end will the piston be when the next resonance is heard?

A 512-Hz tuning fork is struck and placed next to a tube with a movable piston, creating a tube with a variable length. The piston is slid down the pipe and resonance is reached when the piston is 115.50 cm from the open end. The next resonance is reached when the piston is 82.50 cm from the open end. (a) What is the speed of sound in the tube? (b) How far from the open end will the piston cause the next mode of resonance?
A crude approximation at voice production is to consider the breathing passages and mouth to be a resonating tube closed at one end. (See Figure 17.30.) (a) What is the fundamental frequency if the tube is 0.240-m long, by taking air temperature to be 37.0°C? (b) What would this frequency become it the person replaced the air with helium? Assume the same temperature dependence for helium as for air. Figure 17.30 The throat and mouth form an air column closed at one end that resonates in response to vibrations in the voice box. The spectrum of overtones and their intensities vary with mouth shaping and tongue position to form different sounds. The voice box can be replaced with a mechanical vibrator, and understandable speech is still possible. Variations in basic shapes make different voices recognizable.
