Students will learn how to analyze and solve problems where standing waves (and hence sound) is produced in a tube.
Learn about wave harmonics in a column of air by looking closely at the sound produced by a pan flute.
An demonstration is used to gather data on the frequency of sound in a tube.
The physics behind sound in a tube and the different harmonic frequencies created by such reverberations are explained.
A list of student-submitted discussion questions for Sound in a Tube.
