Speed of Sound ( Resonance) Lab

Lab is informal

1)Write a purpose that discusses the relationship between air column length and wave length for resonances ( standing sound waves) and about how we find c using wavelength and frequency. and brief conclusion stating what we did prove or disprove.

2) Answer all questions except the ones about end effect E.

3) Make sure you answer the question about change of temperature's effect quantitatively e.g. my measured lengths would decrease by 2 % -don't quote me this is not the right answer.

4) Also say what frequencies can give resonances for a tube. i.e. Are they a particular number times the original frequency?

5) Open tube means open at both ends.
