Question

QUESTION 4

What is the calculated wavelength?  (Transfer this number to Table 1)

λ = 4(+ 0.3d

Diameter of pvc tube = 3cm 

Length of pvc tube = 100cm

Length of water column = 17cm.

L = total length of tube - length of water filled column

L =  100cm - 17cm = 83cm =0.83m

d =0.03m

λ = 4(+ 0.3d)

Wavelength = 4 ( 0.83 + 0.3x0.03) = 3.356meter

Wavelength of sound = 3.356 m

 

QUESTION 5

What is the estimated measurement of the speed of sound?  (Transfer this number to Table 1).

3.356 * 528 = 1771.968 m/s

Expert Solution
Step 1: Explanation about Formula Speed of sound:

You are on the right track for Question 5. To estimate the measurement of the speed of sound, you can use the formula:

Speed space of space Sound space left parenthesis straight v right parenthesis space equals space Wavelength space left parenthesis straight lambda right parenthesis space cross times space Frequency space left parenthesis straight f right parenthesis

In your case, you have already calculated the wavelength left parenthesis straight lambda right parenthesis space as space 3.356 space meters in Question 4. Now, you need to know the frequency (f) of the sound wave to calculate the speed of sound.
