Step 1
The formula for calculating the frequency of a harmonic is: frequency of harmonic = n x fundamental frequency where n is the number of the harmonic (e.g. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.) Show more…

A tuba creates a 4th harmonic of frequency 116.5 Hz. When the first valve is pushed, it opens an extra bit of tubing 0.721 m long. What is the new frequency of the 4th harmonic? (Hint: Find the original length.) (Speed of sound = 343 m/s) (Unit = Hz)
