Question

A tube closed at one end is used to determine the speed of sound in air. The resonances occur every 32 cm when a 530-Hz tuning fork is vibrated. What is the velocity of the sound?

Answer 1

Answer:169.6m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Wavelength=32cm=0.32m

Frequency=580Hz

Velocity=frequency x wavelength

Velocity=580x0.32

Velocity=169.6m/s
