Hollow tube chies are made of metal and are open at each end. These columns resonate at best at their third resonant length. One chime is 2.5 m long and the air tremperature is 25C.

Hollow tube chimes are made of metal and are open at each end. These columns resonate best at their third resonant length. One chime is 1.5 m long and the air temperature is 24.0ºC. a) What is the speed of sound? b) What is the wavelength of the sound produced? c) What is the frequency of the sound that is heard?

3. A pipe organ tube open at both ends needs to have a fundamental frequency of 262 Hz to be middle C on the musical scale. a) It will be played at a temperature of 20°C. Calculate the length needed for this tube. (Recall that to use our vsound equation, T must be in units of Kelvin.) b) How much will the fundamental frequency of that tube change if the temperature drops to 0°C? (Note that for instruments, a change of only a few Hz is enough to make the note "out of tune".) c) How much will the fundamental frequency of that tube change if the air is replaced with light helium gas, where vsound = 1007 m/s?

A tube filled with water has a valve at the bottom to allow the water to flow out of the tube. As the water is emptied from the tube, the length $L$ of the air column changes. A 1024-Hz tuning fork is placed at the opening of the tube. Water is removed from the tube until the $n=5$ mode of a sound wave resonates. What is the length of the air column if the temperature of the air in the room is $18^{\circ} \mathrm{C}?$
