General Aim of Speed of Sound Using Open Columns
To determine the speed of sound in air at room temperature.
Speed of Sound Using Open Columns Experiment.. Method
Open Air Column.
Speed of Sound Using Open Columns Experiment.. Learning Objectives
Explain the resonance phenomena in an open air by conducting resonance air column experiment.
Set Up an experiment to determine the speed of sound in air using an open air column.
Resonance Air Column Experiment |Theoretical Background
When a sound source (wave generator) is held at one end of the open-air column (tube), standing waves are generated inside the columns. Resonance (loudest sound) occurs, when the frequency of the air column is the same as the frequency of the source.
Speed of Sound Using Open Air Column Experiment | Principle
In speed of sound using open columns experiment, by determining the resonance position and correlating the relation between the wavelength of the fundamental tone formed and the frequency of the source, the speed of sound in air at room temperature can be estimated.
“With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we found ourselves in a situation that forced us to act quickly to find the best solution available to provide our students with a quality molecular genetics laboratory experience.”
'' Although there are now several vendors offering virtual reality software for physics labs, there is only one that offers a realistic, I feel like I’m in a real lab, solution: PraxiLabs.''
" PraxiLabs offered my students a chance to actively engage with the material. Instead of watching videos on a topic, they could virtually complete labs and realize the practical applications of class topics. This is a quality alternative to in-person labs."
"Great user experience and impressive interaction, I am very pleased to have tried the simulations and will continue to do so."
