Resonance

A stationary tuning fork is in resonance with an air column in a pipe. If the tuning fork is moved with a speed of 2 ms−1 in front of the open end of the pipe and parallel to it, the length of the pipe should be changed for the resonance to occur with the moving tuning fork. If the speed of sound in air is 320 ms−1, the smallest value of the percentage change required in the length of the pipe is

Solutions

Expert Solution

For open pipe resonance, f = nv / 4L

 

Let us consider for n = 1,

 

Initial length of pipe = L1 for f1

 

(f1=V/4L1)......(1)

 

Now due to Doppler’s effect,

 

f2=(320/320−2)f1

 

f2=(320/320−2)f1

 

 

f2=v/4L2.....(3)

 

320/318×V/4L1=V/4L2

 

=> L1/L2=318/320

 

% change in length,

ΔL/L×100

(1−L2/L1)×100

(1−318/320)×100

200/320

= 0.62%

 

 


Percentage of change requires is 0.62%

Normal Modes and Resonance Frequencies
A normal mode of a closed system is an oscillation of the system in which all parts oscillate at a single frequency. In general there are an infinite number ofsuch modes, each one with a distinctive frequency fi and associated pattern of oscillation.Consider an example of a system with normal modes: a string of length L held fixed at both ends, located at x=0 and x=L. Assume that waves on this stringpropagate with speed v. The string extends in the...
