A group of students are using resonance to determine the temperature of the air in their laboratory. They use a tunning fork producing a 256 Hz tone. The fork is placed near the opening of a tube filled with water. The water is slowly let out until a resonant mode is heard. (a) Calculate the air temperature if the height of the water level is 33.6 cm at first resonance. (b) Find the height of the water level when the first overtone is heard.

Two tuning forks are designed to produce sound at the same frequency of 440 Hz. However, due to slight manufacturing defects, the frequency of one is actually 440.5 Hz and the other is 439.5 Hz. When both tuning forks are struck simultaneously, a beat frequency is heard. Calculate the frequency of the beats. If the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s, calculate the wavelength difference between the waves produced by the two tuning forks.
