A flute is designed so that it plays a frequency of 261.6 Hz, middle C, when all the holes are covered and the temperature is 20.0°C. (a) Consider the flute to be a pipe open at both ends and find its length, assuming the middle-C frequency is the fundamental frequency. (Give your answer to at least three decimal places.)(b) A second player, nearby in a colder roomalso attempts to play middle C on an identical flute. A beatfrequency of 3.00 beats/s is heard. What is the temperatureof the room?

Answer:

0.655 m

13.468°C

Explanation:

v = Speed of sound at 20.0°C = 343 m/s (general value)

For one both end open we have the expression

[tex]L=\dfrac{\lambda_1}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{\dfrac{v}{f_1}}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{\dfrac{343}{261.6}}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=0.655581039755\ m[/tex]

The length of the flute is 0.655 m

Beat frequency is given by

[tex]\Delta f=f_1-f_2\\\Rightarrow 3=261.6-f_2\\\Rightarrow f_2=261.6-3\\\Rightarrow f_2=258.6\ Hz[/tex]

Velocity of the wave is

[tex]v=f_2\lambda_1\\\Rightarrow v=258.6\times \dfrac{343}{261.6}\\\Rightarrow v=339.066513761\ m/s[/tex]

The temperature is given by

[tex]T=273(\dfrac{v}{331})^2\\\Rightarrow T=273(\dfrac{339.066513761}{331})^2\\\Rightarrow T=286.468227799\ K=286.468227799-273=13.468227799^{\circ}C[/tex]

The temperature of the room is 13.468°C
