  12. “The Dinh PaJama’s”

  13. Physics • Standing Wave λ=2L • λf=v • End Correction L’ = L+ 2e • Levine and Schwinger (Phys. Rev. Feb. 1948), e = 0.6133r • Our results e = 0.5295 r • Speed of Sound

  14. Summary • Successful learning experience • Good instrument and design process • Results • End Correction: 13% or 4% • Speed of Sound: 0.5%

  15. Future Work • Check calibration of tuner • Adjust for thermometer lag • Collect data over a wider temperature range • Redesign Mallet
