Sound enters the ear, travels through the auditory canal, and reaches the eardrum. The auditory canal is approximately a tube open at only one end. The other end is closed by the eardrum. A typical length for the auditory canal in an adult is about 3.0 cm. The speed of sound is 350 m/s. What is the fundamental frequency of the canal? (Interestingly, the fundamental frequency is in the frequency range where human hearing is most sensitive.)

In the sport of parasailing, a person is attached to a rope being pulled by a boat while hanging from a parachute-like sail. a rider is towed at a constant speed by a rope that is at an angle of 15 ∘ from horizontal. the tension in the rope is 1900 n. the force of the sail on the rider is 30∘ from horizontal. what is the weight of the rider? express your answer with the appropriate units.

Glass is transparent to visibile light under normal conditions; however, at extremely high intensities, glass will absorb most of the light incident upon it. this works through a process known as multiphoton absorption. in this process, several photons are absorbed at the same time. if very intense light whose photons carry 2ev of energy is shined onto a material with a band gap of 4ev, that light can be absorbed through two-photon absorption, because two photons have the right amount of energy to bridge the band gap. what is the minimum number of photons of 800-nm light that are needed to equal or exceed the band gap of fused silica glass
