Results for Waves in Pipes and Strings

What is the difference between a tone and a note?

Tone can be defined as the sound producing single frequency and the sound of several mixed frequency is called note.

Note are always pleasent to hear. Tone can be called as the pitch of more accurate frequency.

Resonance tube experiment

Resonance tube experimentThe experimental setup of resonance tube experiment to determine the velocity of sound in air is shown in figure.Initially, to find the velocity of sound in air the water l...

Newtons Formula and Laplace Correction for the Speed of Sound

Velocity of Sound in Gas: Newton's FormulaNewton assumed that when sound waves propagate through gas, compression and rarefaction are produced in the medium. The changes of these compressions and r...

Vectors

1.1 Scalars:- Those quantities which have magnitude only but no direction is called scalars. For example: area, volume, length, speed, current, electric charge, frequency, potential intensity or ra...

What is difference between wave front and wavelet? 

Wave front is the locus of all the vibrating particle in the same phase. for example, an almond is dropped in a bucket full of milk, you can notice the circular wavefront generating on the surface of milk.

Wavelet is simply an oscillation that increases from zero reach to maximum and maximum to zero.
