Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A pipe that is closed at one end resonates at a fundamental frequency of 500 Hz. If the length of the pipe is 1.4 m, what is the speed of sound calculated from this information?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Make sure to rearrange the formula for speed first.

Question 2

Find the third harmonic frequency for an open-open pipe of length 0.75 m with a speed of sound of 340 m/s.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Always remember to substitute the proper n value.
