We want to measure the speed of sound without having water vapor
as a possible source of error. Which of the following scenarios
would work?
Place dessicant in the tube.
Use mercury instead of water, since mercury has a very low vapor
pressure.
Instead of water, insert the tube into fine sand or powder.
Perform the experiment in a vacuum.
Use a fixed length tube with dry air or nitrogen, and a tunable
speaker instead of the tuning fork
Helga wants to measure the speed of sound in a similar
experiment. However, she wants to show off and use an open-ended
pipe instead of a pipe closed at one end. Which of the following
approaches might be appropriate?
Use two pipes that fit closely together, so the overall length of
the pipe can be changed.
Use a fixed length pipe, and use a sound generator that can produce
various frequencies.
Use a fixed length pipe, and move the tuning fork around until it
resonates.
Produce several tubes of varying lengths, and find the tube that
resonates.
Insert the tuning fork into the open tube, forcing the tube to
resonate.
In your experiment, how does the amplitude of the tuning fork
vibration affect the results? t/f
Makes the speed of sound come out low.
Sounds louder or softer, but does not change the
calculations.
Has no effect.
Makes the wavelength too low, resulting in a calculated speed too
high.
Makes the resonant position too low, resulting in a calculated
speed too high.
-> Put the tube into sand or powder - that does not removes
the water vapour inside the tube . So no, this won't work.
-> In vacuum - can't work because without a medium,so,there's no
sound.
-> Use a fixed length tube with dry air or nitrogen - this would
work nicely.
2) tuning fork vibration makes the resonant position too low, resulting in a calculated speed too high.

Indicate whether the following experimental mistake will increase, decrease, or have no effect on the calculated value of R. A student completed the experiment without waiting for the test tube to cool after heating. Select ALL of the correct answers. a. All measurements should be made at the same temperature. b. The volume measured from the beaker will be high. c. The measured temperature is room temperature. d. The calculated value of Ris low. e. The calculated value of Ris...
Thank you and I appreciate your help and time in advance! L = N (l/4), N = 1, 3, 5 … (1) Where L is the length of the air column and N is an odd integer. When N = 1, the column has a length one quarter of wavelength with a node at the water surface and an antinode at the opening. Then the wavelength L1= (1/4) l, or l= 4L1. (2) When N = 3, with...
(might be 1 or 2, MCQ questions were having images given with them, which we couldn't insert, so ignore those questions if you cannot answer, sorry for inconveinience created, i tried to delete them but might be couldn't done all) 3) Single phase induction motors work because: a) The oscillating magnetic field can induce starting torque in a rotor. b) The oscillating magnetic field can induce running torque in a rotor. c) A capacitance or inductance can create the phase...
For the preparation and standardization of NaOH with KHP im supposed to boil water for 1hr and 30 min to remove CO2....the problem is that if I don't boil it for that long and (30 min) b/c of not enough time but I put the water I boiled for 1/2 hr aproximately into a NaOH bottle with a CO2 absorber and stored it there for a few days. I would assume that I would have to boil the water again...but...
I need help to write a nice introduction for experiment 6 please ( no hands write ) typing Thank you HEAT TREATMENT OF STEELS EXPERIMENT 6 EXPERIMENT 6 HEAT TREATMENT OF STEELS THEORY The Effect of Cooling Rate One of the most convenient methods for controlling the properties of a given steel, i.e., a steel whose composition is already fixed, consists of austenizing the steel and ten cooling to room temperature at some predetermined rate. A variation of cooling rates...
