SWI-1 Two speakers are in phase and are both playing a tone with a frequency of 250.0 Hz. A listener
starts at the location of speaker 2 and moves along the x axis. At what values of x are the first 3 locations
where he will hear an intensity minimum? Hint: these are the n = 0, 1, 2 points of destructive interference.
Take the speed of sound in air to be 343 m/s.
speaker 1
(0, 4.50m)
speaker 2
(0, 0)

The acoustical system shown in the figure below is driven by a speaker emitting sound of frequency 730 Hz. (Use v = 343 m/s.)
If constructive interference occurs at a particular instant, by what minimum amount should the path length in the upper U-shaped tube be increased so that destructive interference occurs instead?m
(b) What minimum increase in the original length of the upper tube will again result in constructive interference?
Imagine you are in an open field where two loudspeakers are set up and connected to the same amplifier so that they emit sound waves in phase at 688 HzHz. Take the speed of sound in air to be 344 m/sm/s. What is the shortest distance d you need to walk forward to be at a point where you cannot hear the speakers? The forward direction is defined as being perpendicular to a line joining the two speakers and you start walking from the line that joins the two speakers.
