Draw a picture of each standing wave for the resonances assuming they were the n = 3 and n = 5 modes. Consider the following variables: frequency f, wavelength Lambda, sound speed v, mode number n, and pipe length L. Which of these variables have changed between the two standing waves and which have remained the same?

Draw a picture of standing waves with n=3 and n=5 in a pipe with one open end. Consider the following variables: frequency f, wavelength ( ), the sound of speed (v), mode number n, and pipe length (L). If you used the same tuning fork to create the two standing waves, which of these variables have changed between the two standing waves and which have remained the same? Explain

Two wires are stretched between two fixed supports and have the same length. On wire A there is a second-harmonic standing wave whose frequecy is 660 Hz. However, the same frequency of 660 Hz is the third harmonic on wire B. (a) Is the fundamental frequecy of wire A greater than, less than, or equal to the fundamental frequency of wire B? Explain. (b) How is the fundamental frequency related to the length L of the wire and the speed v at which individual waves travel back and forth on the wire? (c) Do the individual waves travel on wire A with a greater, smaller, or the same speed as on wire B? Give your reasoning.

A string of mass .03 kg and length 2 m is fixed at one end, anddriven with an oscillator at the other end. The oscillator inducestraveling waves on the string of the form
y=A sin (kx-(omega)t) which traveled down the string, hit the fixedend, and get reflected back as a wave with the form y=Asin(kx+(omega)t).
I'm asked to find the a.) velocity of the waves, b.)frequencyrequired to generate a wave with 4 nodes, and c.) derive a generalequation for standing waves on a string using the two aboveequations.

So I have: m = 0.03 kg and L = 2 m
a.) I have a lot of equations, such as
(lambda) = 2L = 4 m
k = 2(pi)/(lambda) = (pi)/2
µ = m/L = 0.015 kg/m
,but all the equations I know to find velocity involve eithertension or frequency or another variable that I don't have. How doI find the velocity with what I'm given?

b.) I think that 4 nodes is the 2nd harmonic frequency (?) wheren=2 in the equation
f = n * (v/2L). Is this right? If so, I can easily find it when Ihave the answer for velocity.

c.) I think that for this part, I just add the two equationstogether. I'd call one y1 and the other y2. y1 + y2 = generalequation?
