Solved: Longitudinal Waves in Different Fluids. (a) A

Chapter 16, Problem 16.15

(choose chapter or problem)

Longitudinal Waves in Different Fluids. (a) A longitudinal wave propagating in a water-filled pipe has intensity and frequency 3400 Hz. Find the amplitude A and wavelength of the wave. Water has density and bulk modulus (b) If the pipe is filled with air at pressure and density what will be the amplitude A and wavelength of a longitudinal wave with the same intensity and frequency as in part (a)? (c) In which fluid is the amplitude larger, water or air? What is the ratio of the two amplitudes? Why is this ratio so different from 1.00?
