Problem Description Two speakers connected to a computer are placed 0.25 meters apart, facing the same direction. A pure tone of unknown frequency is played on both speakers at the same time. The waves produced by the two speakers interfere constructively along the line passing through the two speakers. Assume the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s. Instructions In a neat and organized fashion, write out a solution which includes the following: 1. A sketch of the physical situation with all given physical quantities clearly labeled.. 2. Draw a graph showing the oscillation of the two waves over distance along the line passing through the two speakers. 3. Determine the frequency of the tone being played by the speakers. Explain your mathematical work in words. Your explanation should cover both what you did and the thought process behind why you did that. 4. Evaluate your answer to determine whether it is reasonable or not. Consider all aspects of your answer (the numerical value, sign, and units) in your evaluation.
