There are three cylindrical vases on the table, none of them is taller than 40 cm. The first vase can be filled with 2 dl of water, the second one with 3 dl, and the third with more than 6 dl water. The area of the cross section of the first vase is 10 cm^2, the area of the cross section of the other two vases is 20 cm^2. There is the same amount (volume) of water in each vase. It can be observed that if a specific tuning fork is placed just above the vases, its sound is getting louder. The width of the bottom of each vase is 1 cm, the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s, and the frequency of the tuning fork is less than 1 kHz. a) What is the volume of water in the vases? b) What is the frequency of the tuning fork? c) What is the height of the third vase?

Question

There are three cylindrical vases on the table, none of them is taller than 40 cm. The first
vase can be filled with 2 dl of water, the second one with 3 dl, and the third with more than 6 dl water. The area of the cross section of the first vase is 10 cm^2, the area of the cross section of the other two vases is 20 cm^2. There is the same amount (volume) of water in each vase. It can be observed that if a specific tuning fork is placed just above the vases, its sound is getting louder. The width of the bottom of each vase is 1 cm, the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s, and the frequency of the tuning fork is less than 1 kHz.


a) What is the volume of water in the vases?


b) What is the frequency of the tuning fork?


c) What is the height of the third vase?
