Consider three pipes of the same length (L). Pipe A is open at both ends, pipe B is closed at both ends, and pipe C has one open end and one closed end. If the velocity of sound is the same in each of the three tubes, in which of the tubes could the lowest fundamental frequency be produced? In which of the tubes could the highest fundamental frequency be produced?
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.
