A solid copper object hangs at the bottom of a steel wire of negligible mass. The top end of the wire is fixed. When the wire is struck, it emits sound with a fundamental frequency of 300 Hz. The copper object is then submergedin water so that half its volume is below the water line. Determine the new fundamental frequency.
Rasim and Zhihan are experimenting to determine the speed of sound in m/s in air at 0°C. Assuming air to be made up of diatomic molecules with a molecular mass of 29 g/mol, what is the correct value they should expect for the speed of sound in m/s?
A copper block is suspended from a wire, as in part 1 of the drawing. A container of mercury is then raised up around the block, as in part 2, so that 45.0% of the block’s volume is submerged in the mercury. The density of copper is 8890 kg/m3, and that of mercury is 13 600 kg/m3. Find the ratio of the fundamental frequency of the wire in part 2 to the fundamental frequency in part 1.
