1.
a) Two trumpeters are standing at opposite ends of a large hall, both are playing a 440 Hz note. What beat frequency would a person hear if they were waking directly from one trumpeter towards the other one?

b) A 10 m long organ pipe has both ends open. Assume that the velocity of sound is 340ms^-1.
i) Calculate the fundamental frequency of the organ pipe.
ii) What is the fundamental frequency of the pipe of one end is closed?
iii) Can a standing wave be observed without resonance occurring?

Expert Solution

Standing waves do not form under just any circumstances. They require that energy be fed into a system at an appropriate frequency. That is, when the driving frequency applied to a system equals its natural frequency. This condition is known as resonance. Standing waves are always associated with resonance.

In our case, for open pipe - the ends must have antinodes for standing waves; for one end closed - the closed end should have a node and the open node an antinode for standing waves. We have calculated the case where the wavelength is maximum possible that satisfies the above constraints.

If two ends of a rope are pulled with forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction,...
If two ends of a rope are pulled with forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction, the tension at the center of the rope must be zero. True or false? The answer is false. I chose true though and I'm not understanding why. Forces act at the center of mass of the object, so if there are two forces of equal and opposite magnitude, then they should cancel out resulting in zero tension, no?

Two astronauts on opposite ends of a spaceship are comparing lunches. One has an apple, the other has an orange. They decide to trade. Astronaut 1 tosses the 0.125 kg apple toward astronaut 2 with a speed of vi,1 = 1.09 m/s . The 0.160 kg orange is tossed from astronaut 2 to astronaut 1 with a speed of 1.19 m/s . Unfortunately, the fruits collide, sending the orange off with a speed of 0.982 m/s in the negative y...

In a demolition derby, two cars start from rest at opposite ends of a track. At exactly the same instant they begin to accelerate towards each other in a straight line. Car A accelerates at a rate of aA = 3.0 m/s2 , while Car B accelerates at a rate of aB = 4.0 m/s2 in the opposite direction. After 6.5 s the cars collide. Please use a coordinate system where Car A is travelling in the positive direction. a)(8...

Two waves traveling in opposite directions on a stretched rope interfere to give the standing wave described by the following wave function: y(x,t) = 4 sin⁡(2πx) cos⁡(120πt), where, y is in centimetres, x is in meters, and t is in seconds. The rope is two meters long, L = 2 m, and is fixed at both ends. The distance between two successive antinodes is: d_AA = 0.25 m d_AA = 0.15 m d_AA = 1 m d_AA = 0.5m d_AA...
