Two identical audio speakers connected to the same amplifier produce in-phase sound waves with a single frequency that can be varied between 340 and 575 HzHz . The speed of sound is 340 m/sm/s . You find that where you are standing, you hear minimum-intensity sound
If one of the speakers is moved 39.8 cmcm toward you, the sound you hear has maximum intensity. What is the frequency of the sound?
Express your answer in hertz.
How much closer to you from the position in part B must the speaker be moved to the next position where you hear maximum intensity?
Express your answer in meters.
Imagine you are in an open field where two loudspeakers are set up and connected to the same amplifier so that they emit sound waves in phase at 688 HzHz. Take the speed of sound in air to be 344 m/sm/s. What is the shortest distance d you need to walk forward to be at a point where you cannot hear the speakers? The forward direction is defined as being perpendicular to a line joining the two speakers and you start walking from the line that joins the two speakers.
Q35.6 The two sources S₁ and S2₂ shown in Fig. 35.3 emit waves of
the same wavelength A and are in phase with each other. Suppose S₁ is
a weaker source, so that the waves emitted by S₁ have half the ampli-
tude of the waves emitted by S₂. How would this affect the positions of
the antinodal lines and nodal lines? Would there be total reinforcement
at points on the antinodal curves? Would there be total cancellation at
points on the nodal curves? Explain your answers.
