  20. 1. What is the temperature of the air if a sound wave, frequency 523.0 Hz, has a wavelength of 0.651 0 m?

  21. v = f lv = 523 x 0.6510 340.5 m/s

  22. 2. If sound speed in air is 345 m/s, what is the wavelength of the waves produced by a 264 Hz tuning fork?

  23. v = f l345 = 264 x ll = 1.31 m

  24. 3. A locomotive horn has a frequency of 250 Hz. How will this sound to a stationary listener as the train passes?

  25. The pitch will abruptly drop from above 250 Hz to below 250 Hz.

  26. 4. What is the approximate length of a closed tube that resonates with a sound wave that has a wavelength of 78.0 cm?

  27. Closed tube l = 4Ll = 4L78.0 cm = 4L19.5 cm = L

  28. 5. Sonar travels through water at about 1300 m/s. If there is a 0.5 second delay between the production of the sound and the echo, how far is the submarine from the torpedo? If the sound of the echo has a lower frequency than the original sound, what does that indicate to the people in the sub?

  29. v = d/tvt = d1300 x 0.5 = 650 m (round trip)650/2 = 325 mThe lower frequency indicates the torpedo is moving away from the sub, good news.

  30. 6. Which carries a sound wave more rapidly, a solid or a gas?

  31. Solid, because it is denser.
