Shock Waves

Shock waves are common in continuum mechanics, and their dominance is attributable to the fact that they are stronger (or even less) compressible. Substantial perturbations propagated as sudden dynamic changes of a compressible medium supersonically. Shock waves are all around us in our daily lives. Lightning, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and meteorite impact all produce them in nature. Even the earth, which is protected by its magnetic field, generates a shock wave as in solar wind that travels around 20 Earth radiuses. These shock waves might be either constant, linked to the body, or unsteady, i.e., moving around with time. All of the shocks mentioned above can be damaging, so precautions must be taken to reduce their impact.

Question

100%

The human vocal tract is a pipe that extends about 17 cm from the lips to the vocal folds
(also called "vocal cords") near the middle of your throat. The vocal folds behave rather
like the reed of a clarinet, and the vocal tract acts like a stopped pipe.

• Estimate the first three standing-wave frequencies of the vocal tract. Use v = 344 m/s. (The answers are only
an estimate, since the position of lips and tongue affects the motion of air in the vocal tract.)
• Estimate the second standing-wave frequencies of the vocal tract.
Estimate the third standing-wave frequencies of the vocal tract.
