LUDO › Simulations › Sound Waves

Resonance Tube

First boom: The air column booms at a quarter wave
Speed from two booms: Two booms give the speed: v = 2f(l₂ − l₁)
The third boom: Booms come every half wave
A strange gas: The end correction: add it to the air column
Half under water: Dip an open pipe, and it becomes a closed pipe
How deep: Set the air column, then the depth

Lower the water in a tube until it booms with the fork. Find the speed of sound.
