Chapter 17, Problem 62P
Figure 17-43 shows four tubes with lengths 1.0 m or 2.0 m, with one or two open ends as drawn. The third harmonic is set up in each tube, and some of the sound that escapes from them is detected by detector D, which moves directly away from the tubes. In terms of the speed of sound v, what speed must the detector have such that the detected frequency of the sound from (a) tube 1, (b) tube 2, (c) tube 3, and (d) tube 4 is equal to the tube’s fundamental frequency?

(a) An experimenter wishes to generate in air a sound wave that has a displacement amplitude of 6.20 10-6 m. The pressure amplitude is to be limited to0.850 Pa. What is the minimum wavelength the sound wave can have? (Take the equilibrium density of air to be ρ = 1.20 kg/m3 and assume the speed of sound in air is v = 343 m/s.)
(b) Calculate the pressure amplitude of a 2.80 kHz sound wave in air, assuming that the displacement amplitude is equal to 2.00 ✕ 10-8 m.[Note: Use the following values, as needed. The equilibrium density of air is ρ = 1.20 kg/m3. The speed of sound in air is v = 343 m/s. Pressure variations ΔP are measured relative to atmospheric pressure, 1.013 ✕ 105 Pa.]
(c) Earthquakes at fault lines in Earth's crust create seismic waves, which are longitudinal (P-waves) or transverse (S-waves). The P-waves have a speed of about 9 km/s. Estimate the average bulk modulus of Earth's crust given that the density of rock is about 2500 kg/m3.

- A sound wave arriving at your ear is transferred to the fluid in the cochlea. If the intensity in the fluid is 0.430 times that in air and the frequency is the same as for the wave in air, what will be the ratio of the pressure amplitude of the wave in air to that in the fluid? Approximate the fluid as having the same values of density and speed of sound as water. Speed of sound in dry air (20.0°C, 1.00 atm) is 343 m/s, density of dry air (at STP) is 1.29 kg/m3, density of water is 1000 kg/m3, and speed of sound in water is 1493 m/s. Numeric Response: ______arrow_forwardThe intensity of a sound source is described by an inverse-square law only if the source is very small (a point source) and only if the waves can travel unimpeded in all directions. For an extended source or in a situation where obstacles absorb or reflect the waves, the intensity at distance r can often be expressed as I = cPsource/r, where c is a constant and the exponent î, which would be 2 for an ideal spherical wave, depends on the situation. In one such situation, you use a sound meter to measure the sound intensity level at different distances from a source, acquiring the following data: Distance, r (m) 1 3 10 30 100 Intensity level, ß (dB) 100 93 85 78 70 Part A You want to determine the exponent a for this sound source by graphing the data.
