Consider a flute: would it be best modelled by a tube open at both ends or as a tube with one end open, and one end close? What is the condition for resonance as a function of the tube length in both cases?

Sketch the displacement of molecules in a flute for the fundamental mode (1st harmonic) along with the 2nd and 3rd harmonics.

Expert Solution

For tube that is closed at one end and open at another end, m=1 denotes 1st harmonic, m=3 denotes third harmonic, m=5 denotes fifth harmonic and so on.

A long, clear, flexible tube is bent into a U shape (open at both ends), and we pour water into it (density 1000 kg/m3) until the water reaches the same level on both vertical sides. Now we pour a 7 cm tall column of mercury into the left side (density 13,600 kg/m3), which does not mix with the water. (a) When the fluids reach equilibrium, find the difference in elevation between the top of the mercury (on the left) and...

A condensate of open strings with both ends attached to the same D-brane can be equivalent to a displacement of the D-brane with no open string condensate. A solution to the D-brane Born-Infeld action gives rise to a semi-infinite string extension which is entirely equivalent to an open string with one end attached to the D-brane. Why aren't D-branes and strings independent degrees of freedom?
