What length (in m) should an oboe have to produce a fundamental frequency of 294 Hz on a day when the speed of sound is 350 m/s? It is open at both ends.

Respuesta :

Answer:

L = 0.60 m

The length in metres should be 0.60 m

Explanation:

A pipe open at both ends can have a standing wave pattern with resonant frequency;

f = nv/2L ........1

Where;

v = velocity of sound

L = length of pipe

n = 1 for the fundamental frequency f1

Given;

Fundamental frequency f1 = 294 Hz

Velocity v = 350 m/s

n = 1

From equation 1;

Making L the subject of formula;

L = nv/2f1

Substituting the given values;

L = 1×350/(2×294)

L = 0.595238095238 m

L = 0.60 m

The length in metres should be 0.60 m
