break (s) o) ‘An open resonance tube is fully immersed inn beaker of water with a speaker(S) (conncoted to a frequency generator) fixed Resonance Tube ———~ above it, ‘The resonance length of the tube Beaker ——-—>| can be gradually increased by removing Water water slowly from the beaker through the (open) tap. i) plain briefly how the following factors affect on the resonating length for a given frequency with respect to the above setup. a) temperature of air inside the tube b) speed of sound in water: €) diameter of the tube: 4) length ofthe tbe: Frequency emitted by the speaker (S) is maintained at 210Hz and the resonance length (L) 's increased gradually. Fundamental fone and the first overtone were obtained when L = 390m and L = 119¢m vespeativey, i) ‘Work outa) the end coreeton ofthe tube (e) and b) the speed of sound in air inside the tube) iil) Whats the corresponding L value forthe next resonance state? ‘Which no. ofthe harmonic i it? Draw the corresponding stationary wave pattern inside the resonance tube given below. (Mark L and e) jv) Now the frequency of the signal generator is altered slightly ffom 210He: then the difference between,two consecutive resonance lengths were obtained 7Sem. What is the difference between the initial and the new frequencies? (Assume all the other ‘conditions remain the same) vy) Slate 2 possible errors in determining the speed of sound in air using this experiment. A fire engine moving to the right, at 40 ms sounds its’ horn of frequency 580 Hz at the car while the Van is at rest. and the Van shown here. The Car is moving to the right at 30 ms‘! Speed of sound in air = 330 ms". : Fire Engine What frequency is heard by the passenger (A) in the car? ii) What frequeney is heard by the passenger (B) in the van? iii) When the fire engine is 200m from the car,and 400m from the van, the passenger A in the car hear a sound intensity level of 904B.At that momeni, what intensity level is heard by the passenger B in the van? (Threshold of hearing lp= 10°"? Wm) log 10 (4) = 0.6020
