This experiment uses resonance in a glass tube filled with air to measure the speed of sound. A metal tube of length 45 cm is clamped vertically and different tuning forks between 56-512 Hz are struck near the open end. The stationary wave patterns cause variations in air pressure that can be measured using a microphone inside the tube. By measuring the tube length where resonance occurs for different frequencies, the speed of sound in air can be calculated from the relationship between frequency, wavelength and speed. The experiment finds the speed of sound to be 331 m/s.
