Chapter 17, Problem 109P
In Fig. 17-53, a point source S of sound waves lies near a reflecting wall AB. A sound detector D intercepts sound ray R1, traveling directly from S. It also intercepts sound ray R2 that reflects from the wall such that the angle of incidence θi is equal to the angle of reflection θr. Assume that the reflection of sound by the wall causes a phase shift of 0.500λ. If the distances are d1 =2.50 m. d2 = 20.0 m. and d3 = 12.5 m. what are the (a) lowest and (b) second lowest frequency at which R1, and R2 are in phase at D?

an airfilled, acoustic interferometer, used to demonstrate the interference of sound waves. Sound source S is an oscillating diaphragm; D is a sound detector, such as the ear or a microphone. Path SBD can be varied in length, but path SAD is fixed. At D, the sound wave coming along path SBD interferes with that coming along path SAD. In one demonstration, the sound intensity at D has a minimum value of 100 units at one position of the movable arm and continuously climbs to a maximum value of 900 units when that arm is shifted by 1.65 cm. Find (a) the frequency of the sound emitted by the source and (b) the ratio of the amplitude at D of the SAD wave to that of the SBD wave. (c) How can it happen that these waves have different amplitudes, considering that they originate at the same source?
Sound waves entering human ear first pass through the auditory canal before reaching the eardrum. If a typical adult has an auditory canal of 2.5cm long and 7.0mm in diameter, suppose that when you listen to ordinary conversation, the intensity of sound waves is about 3.2 × 10^−6W/m^2;
a) What is the average power delivered to the eardrum?
