Two tuning forks A and B sounded togethe...

Two tuning forks `A` and `B` sounded together give `8` beats per second. With an air resonance tube closed at one end, the two forks give resonances when the two air columns are `32 cm` and `33 cm` respectively. Calculate the frequenciec of forks.

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the frequencies of the tuning forks A and B based on the information given about the beats and the resonance lengths in the closed-end air column. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between frequency and resonance length The frequency of a tuning fork can be calculated using the formula for the fundamental frequency of a closed-end air column: \[ f = \frac{V}{4L} \] where \( V \) is the speed of sound in air (approximately \( 343 \, \text{m/s} \) at room temperature) and \( L \) is the length of the air column in meters. ...
