Experimental setup of an unmarked cylindrical tube with an audio generator.
Experimental setup of an unmarked cylindrical tube with an audio generator.
An acoustics experiment is conducted using an unmarked cylindrical air column and an adjustable audio generator. As the generator frequency is slowly increased from \(300\text{ Hz}\) to \(700\text{ Hz}\), the air column resonates at exactly two frequencies: \(425\text{ Hz}\) and \(595\text{ Hz}\). The speed of sound in the air column is \(340\text{ m/s}\). Which of the following correctly identifies the boundary conditions of the tube and the length of the tube?
