    The document describes an experiment to investigate the relationship between the separation of two sound sources and the distance between consecutive loud sounds from interference patterns. The separation between two loudspeakers is manipulated while the distance between loud sounds is measured. As the separation between loudspeakers increases, the distance between consecutive loud sounds decreases, following an inverse relationship.

    The positions of two consecutive loud sounds depend on the separation of the two arms of turning fork
    The further the separation between the two sources of sound, the closer the distance between two
    consecutive loud sounds
    i) To investigate the relationship between the separation between two coherent sound sources and the
    distance between two consecutive loud sounds
    ii) Manipulated variable: Separation of two coherent sound sources, a
    Responding variable: Distance between two consecutive loud sounds, x
    Fixed variable: Frequency of sound wave // wavelength of sound wave // distance between the two
    coherent sources of sound waves and the place where the interference pattern is observed
    iii) Cathode ray oscilloscope (C.R.O), audio signal generator, two identical loudspeakers, microphone,
    stick, metre rule and table.

    v) 1. The apparatus is set up as shown in diagram above.


    2. The separation of the two loud speaker, a, is set to 1.00 m.
    3. The positions of two successive loud sounds is determined and the distance, x, between them is
    measured with a metre rule.
    4. The experiment is repeated for values of a = 1.50 m, 2.00 m, 2.50 m, and 3.00 m
    vi) The results are tabulated as follows:
    a/m
    x/m
    1.00
    1.50
    2.00
    2.50
    3.00
    vii) The graph of the distance between two consecutive loud sounds, x, against the separation of loud
    speakers, a
