A resonance tube can be used to measured the speed of sound in air. A tuning fork is held above the opening of the tube and struck, while the far end of the tube is lengthened or shortened. Resonances (loudnesses) are heard at a series of tube lengths, L, which are carefully measured.
resonance tube
The speed of sound in air is determined by measuring the distance between two consecutive resonances. A data set for a tuning fork with a frequency of 320 Hz are L1 = 25.8 cm; L2 = 78.4 cm; and L3 = 131.1 cm. Based on these data, what is the speed of sound in air?
Hint: the opening at the top is an antinode while the water surface is a node. Therefore, what fraction of a full wave is L1? What fractions are L2 and L3?

The man of mass m1 and the woman of mass m2 are standing on opposite ends of the platform of mass m0 which moves with negligible friction and is initially at rest with s = 0. the man and woman begin to approach each other. derive an expression for the displacement s of the platform when the two meet in terms of the displacement x1 of the man relative to the platform.
