An oscillator vibrating at 1250 Hz produces a sound wave thattravels through an ideal gas at 325 m/s when the gas temperature is22.0°C. For a certain experiment, you need to have the same oscillatorproduce sound of wavelength 28.5 cm in this gas. What should the gastemperature be to achieve this wavelength?
Estimate an approximate value for the Debye temperature, if there are 2x1023 atoms in a material occupying a volume of 4.65 x 10-6 m3. Assume the speed of longitudinal and transverse velocity of sound to be 4670 ms-1 and 1600 ms-1, respectively.
A sound wave propagates through a region filled with an ideal gas at constant temperature T. It approaches an acoustically permeable but thermally insulating membrane such that the angle between the wave and the plane of
the membrane is 30 degrees. On the other side of the membrane is the same gas at a different temperature T'. What is the minimum value of T'/T such that no sound passes across the barrier? (You may find it useful to know
that the speed of sound in an ideal gas is proportional to ✓T.)
