A tuning fork is held over a resonance tube, and resonance occurs when the surface of the water is 12 cm below the top of the tube. Resonance occurs again when the water is 34 cm below the top of the tube. If the air temperature is 23 degrees Celsius, find the frequency of the tuning fork.

786 Hz

Explanation:

Recall, the speed of sound is

v = 332 + 0.6t

Where t = 23°

v = 332 + 0.6(23)

v = 332 + 13.8

v = 345.8 m

Also, it is known that distance between two consecutive resonance length is half of the wavelength.

L2 - L1 = λ/2

34 - 12 = λ/2

λ/2 = 22

λ = 44 cm

Finally, remember that also

Frequency = speed/ wavelength

Frequency = 345.8/0.4

Frequency = 786 Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the tuning fork is 786 Hz
