An open pipe has a piston inserted into one of its ends. A tuning fork with the frequency of 342 Hz is sounded at the open end of the pipe. At the same time the piston is set in motion along the length of the pipe. It is observed that the air column in the pipe resonates when its length is 244.2 mm and then again when it's length is 749.3 mm. Calculate the end correction for this pipe and give your answer in mm.
Interference of sound
Seiche
A seiche is an oscillating standing wave in a body of water. The term seiche pronounced saysh) can be understood by the sloshing of water back and forth in a swimming pool. The same phenomenon happens on a much larger scale in vast bodies of water including bays and lakes. A seizure can happen in any enclosed or semi-enclosed body of water.
