Q1 · Standing Waves and Resonance · EASY
A cylindrical pipe of radius R is closed at one end and produces a fundamental frequency of 500 Hz. If the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s, what is the approximate length of the pipe?
Q2 · Doppler Effect · MEDIUM
A sound source emitting frequency f₀ = 1000 Hz moves towards a stationary observer with speed v_s = 34 m/s. If the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s, what frequency does the observer hear?
