QUESTION:
Would you expect the pitch (or frequency) of an organ pipe to increase or decrease with increasing temperature? Explain.
ANSWER:Solution to 3DQ Step 1 The pitch/frequency changes with respect to change in temperature. When the length of the pipe remains same, with the rise in temperature, the velocity of sound increases. This is because as the temperature increases, the molecules will have more energy and thus more velocity.
