Q

How is a longitudinal stationary wave formed in a one sided closed tube

A
  1. blow air into the tube
  2. waves are reflected back from the closed end and interfere to create a stationary wave
  3. Make sure the length of the tube is adjusted so that it creates a wave which has an antinode at the open end and a node at the closed end.
  4. 3RD STEP MUST BE MET FOR IT TO PRODUCE A STATIONARY LONGTIDUNAL WAVE

SOUND = LONGITUDINAL

A

a displacement node always has an antinode pressure

node = highest pressure

Q

What type of nodes are at either side of a open tube both ways

and what type of nodes are at a 1 sided closed tube

A

at a tube with both ends open = anti node and antinode

at a tube with one end closed = anti node and then node

Q

air draw 1st,2nd,3rd harmonics of sound waves which are in open end tubes

A

1st harmonic has a node at the middle
2nd harmonic has nodes at 2 middles

etc
