Standing Waves Worksheet 1. A closed air column resonates with a fundamental frequency of 256Hz. What is the length of this air column if the speed of the sound wave is 343m/s? (3.35x101 m) 2. A closed air column resonates with a fundamental frequency of 4.40x102Hz. If the length of the air column is 18.9cm, what is the speed of the sound wave? (333m/s) 3. If a closed air column resonates with a fundamental frequency of 384Hz, what is the frequency of its 3rd harmonic? (1.15x103Hz) 4. What will be the fundamental frequency of a closed air column that is 22.0cm long and has an air temperature of 20.0C? 390Hz 5. What is the length of a closed air column that produces a fundamental frequency of 256Hz at 20.0C? (0.335m) 6. A 55cm closed air column will resonate to many frequencies; however the lowest frequency to which it resonates is 156Hz. What is the speed of sound waves? (3.4x102m/s) 7. What is the shortest closed air column that will resonate to a sound source (tuning fork) that has a frequency of 4.40x102Hz, assuming that the speed of sound is 341m/s)? (0.194m) 8. An opened air column resonates with a fundamental frequency of 256Hz. What is the length of the air column if the speed of sound is 341m/s? (0.666m) 9. An opened air column resonates with a fundamental frequency of 512Hz. If the length of the air column is 33.0cm, what is the speed of the sound wave? (338m/s) 10. If an opened air column resonates with a fundamental frequency of 384Hz, what is the frequency of the next greatest harmonic to which this column will resonate? (768Hz) 11. If a closed air column resonates with a fundamental frequency of 384Hz, what is the frequency of the next greatest harmonic to which it will resonate? (1.15x103Hz) 12. What will be the fundamental frequency of an opened air column that is 22.0cm long and has a temperature of 20.0C? (7.80x102Hz) 13. What is the length of an opened air column that produces a fundamental frequency of 256Hz at 20.0C? (0.670m)
