Question
Chapter 27, Problem 77A
To determine
To Explain: A marching band sounds flat on a cold day.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The frequency of the sound depends on the speed of sound which further depends on the temperature of the medium.
On a cold day, as the temperature is low, the speed of sound decreases and the pitch becomes flat. So, a marching band sounds flat on a cold day.
