A standing wave of the third overtone is induced in a 1.2-m pipe that is open at one end and closed at the other end. The speed of sound in the pipe is 340 m/s

(a) How many antinodes are there in the standing wave pattern? (b) What is the frequency of the sound produced by the pipe in this situation?


(a) 4 (b) 500 Hz

In the leftmost photo below, an instructor demonstrates that a standard two-by-four on a curved dish can be rotated by the attractive force of a charged rod. The two-by-four is affected by the charged rod of the same way as:

a. the metal ball in the figure 20-3. b. the insulating object in the figure at above right. c. neither of the two; a different mechanism is involved since the two-by-four is so massive.
