17.4 Exercise 13

Avg difficulty 2.5

A 4.0-m-long pipe, open at one end and closed at one end, is in a room where the temperature is T=22°C.T = 22 ° \text{C} . A speaker capable of producing variable frequencies is placed at the open end and is used to cause the tube to resonate. (a) What is the wavelength and the frequency of the fundamental frequency? (b) What is the frequency and wavelength of the first overtone?
