The length of an aluminium rod is 1m and the speed of sound along the rod is 5000 m per second .Find the values of f1 ad f2

Sagot :

Answer:

i. 2.5 kHz ii. 5 kHz

Explanation:

The frequency of the wave in the rod is given by f = nv/2L where n = harmonic, v = speed of sound in rod = 5000 m/s and L = length of rod = 1 m

i. f1

For f1, n = 1

f1 = 1 × v/2L

= v/2L

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

= 5000 m/s ÷ (2 × 1 m)

= 5000 m/s ÷ 2 m

= 2500 /s

= 2500 Hz

= 2.5 kHz

ii. f2

For f2, n = 2

f2 = 2 × v/2L

= v/L

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

= 5000 m/s ÷ 1 m  

= 5000 /s

= 5000 Hz

= 5 kHz
