A flutist assembles her flute in a room where the speed of sound is 342 m/s . When she plays the note A, it is in perfect tune with a 440 Hz tuning fork. After a few minutes, the air inside her flute has warmed to where the speed of sound is 343 m/s . You may assume in this problem that the construction of a flute makes it behave like a pipe which is open on both ends.

How many beats per second will she hear if she now plays the note A as the tuning fork is sounded? in beats/s

How far does she need to extend the "tuning joint" of her flute to be in tune with the tuning fork? in mm

To measure her speed, a skydiver carries a buzzer emitting a steady tone at 1 800 Hz. A friend on the ground at the landing site directly below listens to the amplified sound he receives. Assume the air is calm and the speed of sound is independent of altitude. While the skydiver is falling at terminal speed, her friend on the ground receives waves of frequency 2 260 Hz. (Use 343 m/s as the speed of sound.) (a) What is...
