1. A tuning fork was struck to a closed pipe organ and produced the sound that resonates
( 2nd resonate) with air column. The height of air column inside the tube was 80 cm. If
the speed of sound at that time is 340 m/s, determine the frequency of sound produced
by tuning fork
2. A 400 Hz tuning fork strikes a closed pipe organ and resonates at the third when length
is 125 cm. Determine the speed of sound at that time
3. Determine the frequency of the
a) Second harmonic motion for an air column whose first harmonic frequency is
262 Hz
b) First harmonic motion for an air column whose third harmonic frequency is 1700
Hz
c) Third harmonic motion for an air column whose second harmonic frequency is
984 Hz
d) Next harmonic motion for an air column whose first harmonic frequency is 210
Hz

5. A musician has a concert in a park. The lead instrumentalist uses a test tube ( closed end
air column) with 17.2 cm air column. The speed of sound in test tube is 340 m/s. Find
the frequency of the first harmonic
